20.90

髁已下 (The first character has the fanqie *kua* + *hua* [kuà]. The *Shuowen* states: "*Kuà* is the bone above the thigh (*bì*). Formed with *gu* (bone) and has *guo* phonetic." Sūtra editions write it with *zu* (foot) as 跨, which means stepping over something with one's foot, not the character for the thigh bone. 髀 has the fanqie *pi* + *mi* [bì]. 詮 has the fanqie *jié* + *huā*. It is also written as 𡱼).
