17.63

Jealousy and envy (嫉妬; the first character is [pronounced with the] fanqie qín + [x]ī. The second character is [pronounced with the] fanqie dōu + [g]ù. Wang's commentary to the Chuci says: “To harm the virtuous is called jí; to harm beauty is called dù.” The Shuowen says: “It takes nǚ ‘woman’ as semantic classifier and hù as phonetic.” Hù has the pronunciation hù. Those written with shí ‘stone’ or hòu ‘queen’ are entirely erroneous).
