77.119

To split and strike (剖擊): The upper character is [read with the fanqie] 普口. Kong's commentary on the Shangshu states: '剖 is like breaking open.' The Cangjie pian says it means to cleave. The Shuowen jiezi says: 'It means to divide; it takes 刀 as radical and 咅 as phonetic.' In the register it is written as 掊, which is incorrect, being pronounced 𤼃講. In the summary register, 掊擊 carries the same meaning as this; having already been explained, it is not repeated here.
