Doors and windows (The second character is yóu + jiǔ fanqie. The Guangya states: 'Yǒu means window.' The Yunquan says: 'A front opening is called chuāng; a side opening is called yǒu.' The Shuowen says: 'Piercing a wall and using wood to cross-hatch it is called chuāng; it is a pictograph.' It is sometimes written with piàn; yǒu takes 'door' and fǔ, or also piàn).
