Contacting the palate (著𱼛: the first character has the fanqie 長 + 略. The second character has the fanqie 昂 + 各; it is the standard character 𦠍. In the treatise text it is written as 腭, which is a popular character in common use. The Kaosheng says: “𦠍 is read with the fanqie 齗 + 反; classified under the radical 'meat' (肉) with 㖾 phonetic.” 㖾 has the same sound as above. Various character dictionaries lack this character 𦠍; only the Shuowen contains 谷, which has the fanqie 巨 + 略, meaning the upper curvature inside the mouth, classified under 'mouth' (口) with the upper part picturing ridges like ice (仌); it is a pictographic character).
