7.9

挑目 ("to gouge out eyes"): The character has the fanqie reading [tʰ- + -ieu = tiāo] (體遙反). The Yunquan says: "挑 means to poke out." The Kaosheng says: "挑 means to gouge out (抉, fanqie 縈悅反)." The Zishu says: "It is formed with the radical 扌 (pronounced shǒu, 'hand') and 兆 as phonetic." In the sūtra text, some write it with the radical 木 as 桃 (fanqie 徒刀反), which is incorrect; or with the radical 刀 as 𠛪, which is also commonly used.
