Zhǐtì (flicking with the finger) (the first character has the fanqie zhí + zhǐ. The Shuowen jiezi says: "A finger; formed with the 'hand' radical and the phonetic zhǐ." The second character has the fanqie tā + lì. The Yupian says: "To poke." The Qieyun says: "To trigger/move." Examining the Vinaya, it means poking and picking with the finger; formed with the "hand" radical and the phonetic shì. In ancient script it is also pronounced zhì, or has the fanqie zhāng + gé; now these are not adopted, following only the first).
