And taking by the hand (而攜: 攜 is 戶 + 圭 fanqie; the Yupian says: "攜 means to hold." The Shuowen says: "攜 means to lead by hand; it takes 'hand' (手) as semantic and 巂 as phonetic." 巂 has the same pronunciation as above. The Kaosheng says: "The character 巂 takes 屮, picturing its crest. The popular form 携 is an error").
