75.22
A bird snatching [鳥𢬁] (pronounced *tuan* + *huo* [tuó]; its meaning is the same as *duo* [奪, to snatch]. The *Kaosheng* writes it with 支 as 敓; *duo* is like taking by force; it takes "hand" [手] as semantic classifier and has *dui* [兌] as phonetic component. The *Zhengzi bian* says: '𢬁 means to release, to escape.' Later in the sūtra text, 'a bird treading and escaping' [鳥蹹挩] follows this pronunciation. *Ta* [蹹] is pronounced *tan* + *he* [tà]).
