6.118

嚻動: The first character is pronounced 香 + 妖 fanqie. Zheng [Xuan]’s commentary on the Zhouli says: “嚻 means clamorous.” The Shuowen says: “嚻 means restless and agitated; vessels protruding above the head. It is formed from 頁 (which means head) with a reduced form of 器 as phonetic; hence it says ‘vessels protruding above the head.’ 頁 is pronounced like 頡.”
