Invasion and harassment (侵擾): The upper character has the fanqie *qǐn* + *yín* (侵). The *Shuowen [jiezi]* says: 'Encroaching like sweeping; hence derived from 人, 帚 (broom), and 又 (hand).' Current clerical script omits the 巾 and writes 侵, which is an error. The lower character has the fanqie *ráo* + *shǎo* (擾). Kong [Anguo]'s commentary on the *Book of Documents* says: '*Rǎo* means to disorder.' The *Shuowen [jiezi]* says: 'To trouble. Derived from 手 with 夒 as phonetic; 夒 has the fanqie *nú* + *dāo*.' The *Shuowen [jiezi]* further explains the character 夒: 'A rapacious beast, also said to be a female monkey; derived from 頁, 止, 匕, and 夂.' Writing it with 憂 in the scripture is incorrect.
