Flaying and peeling (㓟剝: the first character has the pronunciation 皮 [pí]. The second character has the fanqie 邦角 [bō]. Character dictionaries say: "Peeling (剝) means falling away; it means harming." The first character, 㓟, has traditionally been pronounced pí, but looking through character dictionaries, there is no such character. I have not ascertained it, but suspect it should properly be 㱟, with the fanqie 疋靡 [pǐ], meaning to harm or strike and break).
