10.27

禿丁(上他谷反說文云無髮也從人在禾下也文字音義云蒼頡出見禿人伏於禾下因以制字也)。

Bald man (禿丁: the first character is [pronounced with the fanqie] ta + gu; the Shuowen says it means "without hair," formed from person [人] under grain [禾]; the Wenzi yinyi says: "When Cangjie went out, he saw a bald person crouched beneath grain, and accordingly created this character").
