5.32

To probe and search (鉤𡩡: the second character is pronounced *suo* + *ge* [= *suǒ*]; the *Shuowen jiezi* says it means to enter a house and search; it has the roof radical [宀] with the phonetic *suo* [索]; the *Kaosheng* says it means to take or to seek; nowadays it is commonly abbreviated by omitting the roof radical, written simply with the market radical and silk radical as 索; the roof radical [宀] is pronounced *mi* + *xian*).
