鐵壓 (pronounced *àn-jiǎ* [yà]. Du [Yu]'s commentary to the *Zuo zhuan* says: *Yà* means to damage or injure. The *Shuowen* states: It means to break down; it is formed from 'earth' with *yàn* phonetic. In the anthology it is written with 'cave' as 䆘; the *Shuowen* defines this as a needle-puncture channel in the channels, which does not carry the meaning of pressing down or crushing).
