1. 《说文》:瞤,目动也。从目,闰声。桂馥义证:“今谓眼睑掣动为瞤也。馥案:北俗谓之眼跳。”贾曰:“目瞤得酒食,见《西京杂记》。”
([En.] "Shuowen" states that 瞤 means eye movement. It is composed of the character for eye and a sound component. Geng Fu gives evidence that it refers to the twitching of the eyelids today, which in northern dialect is called 'eye twitch'. Jia says, 'the eyes twitch when seeing food and drink,' as seen in 'Notes from Western Capital.')
2. 掣动;颤动 ([En.] shudder).
例: 瞤动(肌肉掣动)
