發矛

發矛，指騖慌，與北方話發毛同義。兒女英雄傳笫七回：說著就回手摸身後那把刀，那婦人見這樣子，便有些發毛。據黃氏，所謂矛字其實是毛的古代北方話的讀音。

'Fa Mao' which means scared, have the same meaning of another 'Fa Mao' in dialect of Northern China. As mentioned in the seven episode of Legend of Heroes(1938), "During talking, he touched the machete at the back. The lady was a little bit scared when she saw it." According to Mr Wong, 矛 indicated the pronunciation of 毛 in the ancient dialect of Northern China.

兩個蘇字

有人寫甦醒，也有人寫蘇醒。誰對誰錯？如果看康熙字典，甦，出自清初正字通，與另外一個字（左為丙支，右為生）相通，但沒有解釋，非常奇怪。翻查台灣的字典，蘇本身等於甦醒，解釋為死而復生。同「穌」。左傳宣公八年：「晉人獲秦諜，殺諸絳市，六日而蘇。」蘇醒從昏迷中醒過來或從萎絕中恢復生機。宋代牟巘的春雪詩：「但喜畦蔬得蘇醒，從今小摘有餘懽。」甦醒則是從昏迷中醒過來。出版於明朝的西遊記，第三十九回：「教那多官甦醒回來拜君，方知是真實皇帝。」明末的初刻拍案驚奇，卷二十四：「直等兵快人眾來救，方才甦醒。」雖然兩者相通，但蘇醒比甦醒出現得早很多呢。
