The English TXJ names come from Michael Nylan's book. You'll have to find that book to learn what she meant. Or better, get a copy of the Chinese original. -Richard

Would anyone know where I could find some background information on the
Tai Xuan Symbols (U+1D300-U+1D356)? Any JTC1/SC2 document? The Chinese
names?
I'm having problem understanding a lot of names in this block. For instance :
What does "watch" mean in U+1D344? Timepiece? Period of duty? A
guardsman? A division of the night?
What does "aggravation" mean in U+1D351 ? Worsening ? Exasperation
?
What does "compliance" mean in U+1D352 ? Acceptance, conformity or
submission ?
Etc.
