Chen Collection, Upper Volume Radical: Say (yuē) Kangxi Strokes: 4 Page 502, Entry 01 Tang Rhymes (Tangyun), Collected Rhymes (Jiyun), Dictionary of Rhymes (Yunhui): Pronounced yue. Explanation of Writing (Shuowen): A particle used for speech. Composed of the mouth component with the sound of the character yi. It also symbolizes the exhalation of breath. Commentary: Xu Kai says, if one attempts to say the word yue, the mouth opens and breath is expelled. Jade Chapter (Yupian): The beginning of a statement. Broad Rhymes (Guangyun): Used as a particle for at or of. Supplement to Rhymes (Zengyun): To call, to state. Book of Documents (Shujing), Canon of Yao: Yue ruo ji gu di Yao yue fang xun. Note: In the Ancient Text Book of Documents (Guwen Shangshu), the character yue in the phrase yue ruo is written as the character yue (meaning thereupon), and in the phrase yue fang xun it is written as the character yue (meaning to say). This implies that when it serves as the beginning of a statement, it is interchangeable with yue (meaning thereupon); when it serves as a particle for speech, it is pronounced as written.
