41.8

Solitary and desolate (寂寥: the first character is pronounced [情 + 歷] j-ì [jì]; it is a vulgar graph. The Shuowen gives the correct form as 𡧯, meaning no human sound. It derives from 宀 with a reduced form of 戚 as phonetic. It is also written with 言 as 𧧌. The second character is pronounced [歷 + 彫] l-iáo [liáo]. It is missing from the Shuowen. The Gujin zhengzi says: "𡧯寥 (jiliao) means profound, vast, and without human sound. It derives from 宀 with 翏 as phonetic; 翏 is a reduction of 蓼." 宀 is pronounced 綿 [mián]; 尗 is pronounced 叔 [shū], being a reduced form of 戚).
