8.96

Gate parapet [門𡑢] (The second character has the fanqie tian + ye [甜叶反]. The Zuozhuan states: "Encircling the city wall, they attached to the parapet [𡑢]." Du [Yu's] commentary states: "The battlements upon the city wall." The Gujin zhengzi says: "The battlements upon a city wall. Derived from 'earth' [土] with 'leaf' [葉] phonetic." Nowadays people commonly read it identically with ji [際], which is mistaken).
