頓顙 Knock the brow (the first character is pronounced [in fanqie] 敦 + 困; the second is pronounced [in fanqie] 桑 + 朗; the Fangyan says: "顙 means forehead." To knock the brow means to bow touching the forehead to the ground. He Xiu's commentary on the Gongyang zhuan says: "Like kowtowing today." The Shuowen says: "Formed with 'head' (頁) as semantic and 桑 as phonetic").
