Falsely and wrongfully (誣撗; the first character is pronounced [wú]; Du [Yu]'s commentary to the Zuo zhuan says: "誣 means to deceive"; the Kaosheng says: "To heap slander upon; to wrong"; Zheng [Xuan]'s commentary to the Liji says: "誣 is like false; to deceive"; the Shuowen jiezi says: "To fabricate words; it takes 'words' (言) with 巫 as phonetic; 巫 is pronounced the same as above." The second character has the fanqie 鍠孟 [hu- + -àng]; the Yunlüe says: "擴 means arriving contrary to reason"; the Shiji says: "Licentious and unrestrained"; the Kaosheng says: "Not conforming to reason"; the Gujin zhengzi says: "It takes 'hand' (手) with 黃 as phonetic"; in the sūtra text it is sometimes written with 'wood' (木) as 橫; both forms are permissible and used interchangeably).
