Shame and humiliation (慙恥: the upper character is zang-nan [fanqie]. In the Shangshu: "Only ashamed in virtue." The Shuowen says: "慚 means shame and remorse. It takes its semantic classifier from 心 'mind' and 斬 is the phonetic." The lower character is chi-li [fanqie]. The Kaosheng says: "恥 means disgrace." The Zishu says: "恥 means shame." Wei Hong writes it with 言 'speech' as 誀, an ancient character. 癡 has the phonetic reading chou-zhi [fanqie]).
