11.63

茹食（如暑反考聲云茹噉也食也下食字正體從亼精入反從皂彼立反今經文從人從良作食俗用字非正體也）。

茹食 (With the fanqie rú-shǔ [rǔ]. The Kaosheng says: "Rú means to swallow; it means to eat." For the second character, 食, the orthodox form is formed from 亼 (with the fanqie jīng-rù) and from 皂 (with the fanqie bǐ-lì). The sūtra text nowadays writing it with 人 and 良 as 食 is a popular character, not the orthodox form).
