窗牖 (Windows: for the first character, fanqie 楚雙 [chuāng], the Shiming says: 'A window is called clever (聰); looking from inside out, one sees clearly and brightly.' The Shuowen says: 'In a house it is called a 窗.' For the second character, fanqie 與久 [yǒu], the Shuowen says: 'Piercing a wall and using wood to make a latticed window.' The Liji says: 'The scholar has an overgrown doorway and a window framed with a broken jar.' The Shuowen says: 'Formed from 片, 戶, and 甫 phonetic.')
