      Old Chinese Contrasts
      1. Some words can take abstract objects (xù 畜, jī 積, occasionally chǔ 儲 ), others are basically limited to concrete objects (jí 集, jí 輯, wěi 委, zhì 庤 ).

      2. The collocation of things may be typically on a large scale (jī 積, chù 畜 ), or on a small scale (wěi 委, zhì 庤 ), or indifferently on any scale (jí 集, jí 輯 ).

      3. The purpose of the collocation of things may be constant and current use (chù 畜 ), or it may typically be the creation of a large permanent collection of amassed stuff (jī 積 ), or it may be unspecified (jí 集, jí 輯 ).
