41.44

Hunchback (僂者: pronounced [力 + 主] l-ǚ [lǚ]. Du [Yu's] commentary on the Zuo zhuan says: "傴 (yu) refers to the upper body; 僂 (lu) is like a bent back." The Guangya says: "Bent body." The Shuowen says: "Deformed. It derives from 人 with a reduced form of 婁 as phonetic." Some say a bent back (beilu); both have the same meaning).
