27.186

Jealousy and envy (嫉妒): The upper character is qinxi [fanqie], with Qin entering tone; the Yupian gives cili [fanqie]; the ancient forms 𧪠, 㑵, and 愱 are identical. The lower character is danggu [fanqie]. The Chuci says: "Hence giving rise in mind to jealousy and envy." Wang Yi's commentary on the Chuci says: "Harming the worthy is called ji (嫉); begrudging physical beauty is called du (妒)." The Shuowen says: "A woman's envy of her husband; formed from 女 'woman' with 戶 as phonetic."
