Greetings scholars!
Some might call it a cop-out, but I prefer to think of it as recycling material that was left on the cutting board after my honorifics video xD

As always, switching on closed captions is recomended

    One man's trash is another man's treasure. I love the way you connect 遺 with 貴. 👍 By the way, the phonetic element 臾 now sounds much different from 貴. We can hardly recognise the sound identification through Mandarin.🧐
