鹹酢（上洽緘反爾雅鹹苦也考聲云水味也說文鹹銜也從鹵音魯咸聲也今經文從酉作醎誤也俗用亦通下麤素反蒼頡篇云酢酸也說文醶也又減反從酉乍聲也今俗用却為酬酢字藏各反經文從昔作醋俗傳用為酸酢之字也酢音昨與說文相反也二字互用不定說文玉篇字統皆音酢倉固反醋音酢切韻及時俗用即反上音醋麤素反）。

> 鹹酢 (salty and sour): The upper \[character\] is \*xián\* (洽緘反 \[ɦˠɛm\]), the \*Erya\* says: "鹹 is bitter." The \*Kaosheng\* says: "The taste of water." The \*Shuowen\* says: "鹹 is to hold in the mouth; it takes the halogen radical 鹵 (\*lǔ\*) with 咸 as its phonetic." In the current sūtra text it is written with the wine radical as 醎, which is an error, though it is also accepted in popular usage. The lower \[character\] is \*cù\* (麤素反 \[t͡sʰuoᴴ\]), the \*Cang Jie pian\* says: "酢 is sour." The \*Shuowen\* says: "It is pickled (醶), also pronounced \*hǎn\* (減反); it takes the wine radical with 乍 as its phonetic." Nowadays popular usage uses it for toast-and-response (酬酢, \*zuò\*, 藏各反 \[d͡zɑk̚\]). The sūtra text writes it with 昔 as 醋, which popular transmission uses for the character meaning "sour" (酸酢). The pronunciation \*zuò\* (昨) for 酢 runs contrary to the \*Shuowen\*. The two characters are interchanged inconsistently: the \*Shuowen\*, \*Yupian\*, and \*Zitong\* all pronounce 酢 as \*cù\* (倉固反 \[t͡sʰuoᴴ\]) and 醋 as \*zuò\* (音酢), whereas the \*Qieyun\* and contemporary vulgar usage invert the above pronunciations, with 醋 being \*cù\* (麤素反 \[t͡sʰuoᴴ\]).
