菡𧂄（上含紺反下談濫反爾雅菡𧂄芙蕖花開也說文云花未開敷曰芙蓉已開敷曰菡𧂄兩字並從草函閻皆聲也經文多作菡萏非也失之遠矣也）。

> Hàndàn 菡𧂄 (The upper character is fanqie 含紺 \[hàn\]. The lower character is fanqie 談濫 \[dàn\]. The Erya says: 'Hàndàn 菡𧂄 refers to the open lotus flower'. The Shuowen jiezi says: 'When the flower has not yet opened, it is called fúróng 芙蓉; when it has already opened, it is called hàndàn 菡𧂄. Both characters have radical cǎo 草, and hán 函 and yán 閻 are both phonetic'. In sūtra texts, it is mostly written as 菡萏, which is incorrect and misses the mark by far).
