29.67

Ashamed and humiliated (愧耻): The upper character has the fanqie *guī* + *wèi* (愧). The *Yupian* says: 'Ashamed.' The *Shuowen [jiezi]* writes it with 女 as 媿; ancient texts sometimes wrote it with 言 as 謉, or with 耳 as 聭; the semantic definitions are the same. The lower character has the fanqie *chī* + *lǐ* (耻). The *Shuowen [jiezi]* says: 'Disgrace. Derived from 耳 (ear) with 止 as phonetic.'
