Suddenly (欻然: the first character [欻] is fanqie 熏鬱 [xū]. Xue Zong's commentary on the Xijing fu says: "欻 means suddenly." The Wenzidian shuo says: "欻 denotes the appearance of rising up suddenly." The Shuowen says: "Something blown upward." It is formed with the yawn radical [欠] and 炎 as phonetic).
