For the second [character 捷], q- + [y]e [jié]; the commentary to the Mao classic of Poetry says: “'Jie' means victory.” Du's commentary to the Zuo commentary says: “'Jie' also means overcoming.” The Kaosheng says: “Overcoming in battle is called 'jie'.” The Shuowen says: “'Jie' means catching / taking.
