Humble and deferential 孱然 (pronounced with the fanqie 棧 + 閑; Wei Zhao's commentary on the Records of the Grand Historian says: "Chan is the appearance of humaneness and deference." The Shuowen jiezi also says it means deferential; it takes the corpse radical 尸 and the phonetic 孨; it is also written with three sons as 孨 with the same pronunciation).
