51.63

"Nine pivots" (Fanqie: 觸 + 朱 [chū]. Guo Pu's commentary on the Erya says: 'The pivot of the leaves of a door or gate.' Gu Yewang notes that the Zhuangzi says: 'Tattered bramble doors, using mulberry for the pivot'; this is it. The Shuowen jiezi says it derives from the wood radical with 區 as phonetic).
