Definitions

捼

1. (Classical) to rub or knead with the hands

Usage notes

• The Kangxi Dictionary gives the fanqie 乃回切 and 奴回切, but states that the reading is the same as 𨡌, which Hanyu Da Zidian gives the reading néi: this is the expected modern reflex from Middle Chinese reading due to the final -ui becoming -ei after n-. However, the Dictionary of Chinese Character Variants gives the reading nuí, which more closely matches the fanqie.
