### Definitions

胠
* body part between flank and armpit
* (obsolete) right flank; right wing
* to pry open from the side
    From: 1042, Ouyang Xiu（歐陽修）,《釋秘演詩集序》, translated as Preface to the Poetry of the Buddhist Monk Pi-yen by Ronald C. Egan
    Yǐ lǎo, qū qí tuó, shàng dé sānsìbǎi piān, jiē kěxǐ zhě. [Pinyin]
    Today, an old man, he has opened his bundle and recovered three or four hundred pieces, all of them are delightful.
* (controversial) to be stranded ashore
    From: circa 3rd BCE,《荀子•榮辱》 According to 楊倞 (Yáng Jìng, “fl. 819”), here the character carries a similar meaning to 祛 (qū, “to lose”), while Yu Yue (俞樾, 1821~1907) reckoned it as a variant of 阹 (qū, “to bar; to obstruct”)
    Fúyáng zhī yú yě, qū yú shā ér sī shuǐ, zé wú dài yǐ. [Pinyin]
    The mullet dart about near the surface of the water, but when they are stranded on the sand, though they may long for water, they will never reach it again.
