潛伏 (Lurking and hiding: The character 潛 has already been explained in the preface. The lower character has the fanqie 輔腹 [fú]. Jia's commentary on the Guoyu says: '伏 means hidden.' The Guangya says: 'To conceal.' The Shuowen jiezi says: 'To spy; a dog waiting to ambush someone; hence it is derived from 人 [person] and 犬 [dog], an associative compound').
