"Dissatisfied belly" (歉腹): [歉 is pronounced with the fanqie] qian + dian (qian). Zheng [Xuan]'s commentary on the Book of Rites says: 'Qian describes an unsatisfied state of regret.' The Shuowen jiezi says: 'It means not sated. It has the yawn radical (欠) and jian (兼) phonetic.' The compiled text mistakenly writes it with the mouth radical (口) as qian (嗛), which means holding food in the mouth; that is not the intended meaning of the anthology.
