41.50

Wide and open (開豁: for the second character, fanqie huān-guā. The Guangya says: "Huò (豁) means empty; it means vast." In the Shuowen jiezi it is written as 𧯆, meaning an open valley; composed of the valley radical (谷) with hài (害) phonetic. For the first character, the standard form is 開; the Shuowen jiezi has it composed of 開 (kāi), but vulgar usage mistakenly writes it with jǐng (井); 開 is pronounced qiān).
