45.24

門閫 [Threshold of a gate] (the second character is pronounced with the fanqie kūn + wěn [kǔn]. Zheng's commentary on the Book of Rites states: "Kǔn is the doorpost/threshold." The Shuowen writes it as '梱', taking 'mù' (木) as its semantic classifier and 'kùn' (困) as its phonetic component. Writing it with 'mén' (門) as '閫' is also interchangeable).
