41.71

Hunchbacked and stooped (傴僂: for the first character, fanqie yú-yǔ; for the second, fanqie lì-yǔ. The Tongsu wen says: "A bent spine is called hunchbacked and stooped (傴僂)." The Shuowen jiezi states that the two characters 傴 and 僂 both take the person radical and are phono-semantic characters. In the sūtra text, writing it with the body radical as 軁 is incorrect).
