動眴 [blinking / winking] (pronounced with the fanqie 玄 + 絹 [xuàn]. Gu Yewang states: 'Nowadays people move their eyes to give secret instructions to one another.' The *Kaosheng* also states: 'Movement of the eyes.' Wang Yi's commentary on the *Chuci* states: '眴 is the appearance of looking.' The *Shuowen* states: 'Classified under the radical 目 with 旬 as its phonetic component; 旬 has the same sound as above').
