Chest and breastbone (胸𰭾) (The upper character is pronounced xiong. The lower character is yu + li fan. The Gujin zhengzi states: "𰭾 means the chest bone." The Shuowen states: "Also means the chest. Composed with 'meat' [肉] semantic and 乙 phonetic." Sometimes written with 意 as 臆, which is also acceptable. In the scripture text it is sometimes written with 'bone' [骨] as 𩪣, which is an ancient character).
