17.66

Alternately (遞互; the first character is [pronounced with the] fanqie tí + [l]ǐ. Zheng's commentary to the Erya says: “Dì means alternate.” The Kaosheng says: “It means to replace.” The Shuowen says: “To change and substitute. It takes chuò ‘walk’ as semantic classifier and sī as phonetic.” Chuò is [pronounced with the] fanqie chǒu + [lü]è; sī is [pronounced with the] fanqie tiān + [y]ī. The scripture's writing it as 遞 is a vulgar character and is erroneous).
