17.56

To awaken (覺寤; the first character has the pronunciation jiào. The second character is [pronounced with the] fanqie wǔ + [g]ù. The Boya says: “Jué means to know.” The commentary to the Mao Poetry says: “Wù also means to awaken.” The Cangjiepian says: “To awaken from sleep and speak is called wù.” The Shuowen says: “It takes an abbreviated form of mèng as semantic classifier and wú as phonetic.” The scripture's writing with the cave classifier xué as 寤 is erroneous).
