Reverent and respectful (恭敬: the first character, 恭 [gong], according to the Shuowen means solemn and respectful. Below, it has the ancient form of the character 心 [heart]; above, 共 serves as phonetic. The vulgar form deriving from 尒 is incorrect. The second character, 敬 [jing], according to the Kaosheng means respectful and prudent. The Shuowen derives it from 攴 and 苟. 苟 is pronounced [己 + 力] j-í [jí]).
