Praise and censure (襃貶: the first character is pronounced with the fanqie 保毛 [p- + -ɑu = bāo]. Gu Yewang says: 'Bao (襃) means to extol excellence.' Zheng's commentary on the Liji says: 'To advance.' The Shuowen jiezi says: 'A robe with broad, padded hems'; it takes the clothing radical [衣] with 保 as phonetic. The second character is pronounced with the fanqie 兵奄 [p- + -æm = biǎn]. Zheng's commentary on the Zhouli says: 'To diminish.' The Kaosheng says: 'Clever.' The Shuowen jiezi says: 'To diminish and damage'; it takes the cowrie radical [貝] with 乏 as phonetic).
