般若正翻慧者,以古來諸德義翻為妙慧、淨慧、無相慧,此皆挾到彼岸義,是別相也。或云智慧,今云正翻慧者,即通相也。

Regarding 'prajñā correctly translates as wisdom (hui)': Because past worthies translated it by meaning as 'wondrous wisdom', 'pure wisdom', or 'markless wisdom', these all include the meaning of reaching the other shore and are particular characteristics. Some say 'knowledge and wisdom' (zhihui); stating here that it 'correctly translates as wisdom (hui)' is the general characteristic.
