76.11

相扮 (fanqie: 汾 + 吻). The Shuowen says: 'To grip.' The Shenglei says: 'To strike.' Gripping dry parched flour in hands and tossing/beating them against each other. It takes its semantic classifier from 手 (hand) and 分 is its phonetic. The scripture text writing it with the wood radical as 枌 is the name of a tree, which is an error.
