You Collection, Lower Volume Radical: Walk (chuò) Kangxi Strokes: 12 Page 1254, Entry 29 Pronounced yi (rising tone). According to Sound Dictionary of the Classics (Yunhui) and Collected Rhymes (Jiyun), the pronunciation is the same as the character yi. It is the same as the character yi (variant). In the Commentary to the Literary Expositor (Erya), it is noted that the term yili means winding and continuous, extending to the side. Also, according to Collected Rhymes (Jiyun) and Correct Rhymes (Zhengyun), pronounced yi (level tone). The term weiyi describes a calm and self-possessed manner. Also, according to Collected Rhymes (Jiyun) and Correct Rhymes (Zhengyun), pronounced tuo. The term weiyi describes the way of walking. The original form of this character is written as yi. Textual Research: The Literary Expositor (Erya), section Explaining Teachings (Shixun) states that yili means to move sideways. Note: This entry is a commentary from the section Explaining Mounds (Shiqiu) of the Literary Expositor (Erya), not the main text of Explaining Teachings (Shixun). I have followed the original text to change Explaining Teachings to Commentary, and have added the two characters lianyan (meaning continuous and connected) after the phrase to move sideways.
