彫鏤(上鳥聊反下樓豆反顧野王曰彫𩀟刻也廣雅彫亦鏤也賈注國語鏤刻也說文彫琢以成文也從周彡聲鏤剛䥫可以刻鏤也從金婁聲正體字經作婁俗字也)。

Carved and engraved (the first character is *niao* + *liao* [diāo]; the second is *lou* + *dou* [lòu]. Gu Yewang says: "*Diao* means to engrave and carve." The Guangya says: "*Diao* also means to engrave." Jia's commentary on the Guoyu says: "*Lou* means to carve." The Shuowen says: "*Diao* means to polish and carve into patterns; categorized under 'thorough' [周] with *shan* [彡] phonetic. *Lou* means hard iron that can be used for carving; categorized under 'metal' [金] with *lou* [婁] phonetic." This is the orthodox form of the character; the sūtra writes 婁, which is a vulgar variant).
