"Deceitful and strange" (譎怪): [譎 is pronounced with the fanqie] juan + xue (jue). Zheng [Xuan]'s commentary on the Mao Commentary to the Book of Odes says: 'Jue (譎) means remonstrating obliquely through songs and verses, wavering and not speaking straightforwardly.' The Shuowen jiezi says: 'It means false; deceiving Heaven is called jue. It has the speech radical (言) and yu (矞) phonetic.' 矞 is pronounced wei + ju (yu).
