For the record, below is the copy of the comment I posted today in weijin's thread "留与溜与流".

Hehe, please let me make things a little more confusing. There is the word "文" (zhou4 wen2), and it means "large seal scripts (大篆)", one of ancient Chiense character styles. The phonetic radical of "籀" (zhou4) is not "留" (liu2), but the part that consists of 扌 and 留, which is pronounced as "chou1". A phonetic radical sometimes "cheat" you!
