15.166

Obstruction (障閡; upper [character] *zhāng* + *ràng* fanqie. The *Shuowen jiezi* states: "*Zhàng* means to block off; derived from the *fù* 阜 radical, a phono-semantic character." The sūtra takes the *yì* (city) radical as 鄣, which is incorrect, as that is the name of a commandery or town, and is also in the level tone. Lower [character] *wǔ* + *gài* fanqie, a vulgar character; the correct form takes the *shí* (stone) radical as 礙. The *Kaosheng* states: "To separate; to stop; to resist; to hinder. Derived from the *shí* (stone) radical with *yí* 疑 as phonetic").
