### Etymology 2

Based on a commentary to the following passage from the Kao Gong Ji in the Rites of Zhou by the Eastern Han scholar Zheng Xuan (鄭玄, 127–200): 「弓而羽閷，末應將發。」 The Tang-era scholar Jia Gongyan (賈公彥) considers Zheng's reading as 破讀／破读 (pòdú, “isolated instance of unusual pronunciation”). The textual quality of the passage, along with the meaning of the Zheng–Jia commentaries, has been called into question.

#### Pronunciation

* Mandarin
    (Pinyin): hù (hu$^4$)
    (Zhuyin): ㄏㄨˋ
* Mandarin
** (Standard Chinese)
*** Hanyu Pinyin: hù
*** Zhuyin: ㄏㄨˋ
*** Tongyong Pinyin: hù
*** Wade–Giles: hu$^4$
*** Yale: hù
*** Gwoyeu Romatzyh: huh
*** Palladius: ху (xu)
*** Sinological IPA : /xu⁵¹/
* Uncertain, based on the pronunciation of 戶 (MC huX) < 戶 (OC *ɡʷaːʔ), homophonic to 扈 (MC huX), according to the Zheng–Jia tradition (see the Etymology section).

#### Definitions

羽
* (obsolete on its own in Standard Chinese) The meaning of this term is uncertain. Possibilities include:
** slow and relaxed (the same as 緩)
