Donning armor (huanjia 擐甲: the first character has the fanqie [reading] hu + guan [huan]. The Shuowen [jiezi] says: "To wear armor." We note that the Shuowen [jiezi], Zilin, and Yupian all pronounce it with the fanqie hu + guan [huan]; only the Wujing wenzi yinyi pronounces it with the fanqie gu + huan [huan]. The second character has the fanqie [reading] gu + qia [jia]. The Shuowen [jiezi] says: "A military weapon." The Yinpu writes it as 鉀, stating: "Suit of armor." It is also the name of a heavenly stem; the Erya states: "When the Grand Year is at jia, it is called epon").
