Damming and obstructing (隁塞; the upper character [隁] is fanqie 蔫㦥; nowadays it is also written 堰. For the treatise text to write 堰 is incorrect. Gu Yewang says: 'A 隁 is that by which water is stopped and impounded.' The Kaosheng says: 'To block.' The Wenzidian shuo says it is composed with 卩 as semantic and 匽 as phonetic. The sound of 匽 is the same as above. The lower character [塞] is fanqie 僧則; this is a popular character. The Shuowen properly writes it with [(耜-〡)-耒+((耜-〡)-耒)] as 𡫼. The Kaosheng says: 'To plug; full; to block.' Zheng's commentary on the Analects says: '塞 is like concealing.' The Shuowen says: 'To partition.' It is composed with 'earth' (土) as semantic and 𡫼 as phonetic. The pronunciation of the upper component is as above; [(耜-〡)-耒+((耜-〡)-耒)] is pronounced 展).
