闞迥 [overlooking the distance]: The first character is read with the fanqie kan + lan (kàn). The Cangjiepian says: 'Kàn means to look.' It is also erroneously written with the [semantic] radical 'eye' (目) as 瞰, with the same meaning. The Shuowen jiezi says it is composed of the [semantic] radical 'gate' (門) and the sound gǎn (敢). The second character is read with the fanqie ying + jiong (jiǒng). The Erya says: 'Jiǒng means distant.' The Shuowen jiezi says it is composed of the [semantic] radical 'movement' (辵) and the sound jiǒng (冋).
