匱乏 (Destitute and lacking: for the first character, fanqie 求位 [kuì], the Shuowen says: 'Exhausted.' The Qieyun says: 'Also lacking.' For the second character, fanqie 房法 [fá], the Shuowen says: 'Poor; also lacking.' The Zuo Zhuan says: 'The reverse of 正 [upright] is 乏 [deficient].' The character does not derive from 之.)
