疲厭 [Weary and satiated]: The upper [character] has the sound 皮 (pí); Jia's commentary to the Guoyu says, “Fatigued.” The Guangya says, “Weary.” It derives from 疒 with the phonetic 皮. The lower [character] has the fanqie 伊焰 (yī + yàn = yàn); the Kaosheng says, “Full; also weary.” The Shuowen says, “Deriving from 犬 [dog] and 甘肉 [sweet meat], written as 厭; a dog relishing meat.” Today it has colloquially changed into the character 厭, which is commonly used.
