塵埃（上長隣反莊子云塵埃也說文云行揚土也從鹿從土本作麤古字也從鹿從土今隸書去二鹿略也下埃音哀王逸注楚辭云埃亦塵也蒼頡篇云垢風揚塵也說文亦塵也從土矣聲也）。

Dust and motes (塵埃: the upper character is ch[áng]-lín [fǎn]; the Zhuangzi says: "塵 means dust motes." The Shuowen says: "Earth stirred up by travel." It takes the deer radical (鹿) and earth radical (土); the original character was cū (麤), an ancient character composed of deer and earth; the current clerical script omits two deer characters as an abbreviation. The lower character āi (埃) is pronounced āi; Wang Yi's commentary on the Chuci says: "埃 is also dust." The Cang Jie pian says: "Grime and wind-stirred dust." The Shuowen says: "Also dust." It takes the earth radical (土) and yǐ (矣) phonetic).
