孩齔 ('Childhood teeth-shedding'; the fanqie is 初 + 僅 [chèn]. The Zhouli states: 'Those who have not shed their milk teeth shall not be made slaves.' Zheng Xuan says: 'Chen means replacing baby teeth; at seven years old one sheds teeth; composed with "teeth" (齒) as semantic element and 七 as phonetic element.' The collected editions have 齔, which is rejected.)
