鞮譯（上底奚反禮記曰五方之人言語不通嗜欲不同達其志通其欲故西方曰狄鞮鄭注曰皆世間之人其名也依其事類耳鞮之言知也廣雅狄鞮譯也說文從革是聲也）。

> Interpretation (鞮譯: upper character is \*di-xi\* fanqie; the \*Liji\* says: people of the five directions do not share languages and have different desires; to convey their intents and communicate their desires, those of the West are called \*diti\*; Zheng \[Xuan\]'s commentary says: these are worldly people and their designations simply follow the categories of their work; \*di\* means to know; the \*Guangya\* says: \*diti\* means interpreter; the \*Shuowen jiezi\* says it derives from 革 with 是 as phonetic).
