推徵 (Inquiring and verifying: The upper character has the sound 吹 [chuī]; the lower has the fanqie 陟陵 [zhǐ]. Du [Yu's] commentary on the Zuo zhuan says: '徵 means to verify.' The Shuowen jiezi says: 'Whenever a scholar acts modestly in obscurity yet his reputation is heard in the court, that is 徵; hence it is derived from 壬 and the abbreviated sound of 微. 壬 has the fanqie 體郢 [tǐng].')
