Wrapped and bound (纏裹): The first character is read with the fanqie 徹 + 連. The Kaosheng says: 'To wind around; to bind.' The Shuowen says: '纏 means to bind. It derives from 糸 with 廛 providing the phonetic.' The second character is read with the fanqie 光 + 火. The Kaosheng says: '裹 means to wrap.' The Shuowen says: '裹 means to wrap and bind. It derives from 衣 with 果 providing the phonetic.' It is sometimes written as 褁, which is a vulgar abbreviated form.
