㧖腕（上鸎革反字書云㧖把也持也說文作搹從手鬲聲鬲音革論作扼俗字也下烏灌反正體字也說文云[耳*(叉/手)]手掌後節也從手𥄗聲𥄗音冤板反論作腕俗字也）。

㧖腕 Wringing the wrists: the first character is pronounced with the fanqie 鸎 + 革. Dictionaries state: '㧖 (è) means to hold; it means to clasp.' The Shuowen writes it as 搹, taking the hand radical (手) and 鬲 for phonetic; 鬲 is pronounced 革 (gé). The treatise's writing of it as 扼 is a vulgar character. The second character is pronounced with the fanqie 烏 + 灌, which is the standard character. The Shuowen says: '[耳*(叉/手)] is the joint behind the palm of the hand; it takes the hand radical (手) and 𥄗 for phonetic.' 𥄗 is pronounced with the fanqie 冤 + 板. The treatise's writing of it as 腕 is a vulgar character.
