57.64

蹲踞 ('squatting and crouching'; the first character has the sound 存 [cún]. The Kaosheng says: "'Dunjù' (蹲踞) means sitting with the knees drawn up." Du [Yu's] commentary on the Zuo zhuan says: "'Dun' means sitting with feet drawn together." The Shuowen says: "It also means crouching; it is formed from [the radical] 足 with 尊 as the phonetic component." The second character is pronounced with the fanqie 居 + 御).
