Misty and distant: 縹 [piao] (upper character: 漂 + 眇 fanqie. The Shuowen jiezi says: "'Piao' is a light greenish-white color"); 眇 [miao] (lower character: 妙 + 小 fanqie. Wang Yi's commentary on the Chuci says: "Looking afar indistinctly is miaoran." Sima Biao's commentary on the Zhuangzi says: "'Miao' means high." The Shuowen jiezi analyzes it: from radical 目 'eye', with 少 phonetic).
