棊博(上音其博物志日舜造圍棊而丹朱善圍棊孔子曰不有博弈者乎為之猶賢乎案彈棊始自魏宮文帝好之每用手巾拂之無不中者下謗莫反六博也從十)。

Weiqi and gambling games (棊博: the first character is pronounced [kʰ]i. The Bowuzhi says: "Shun created weiqi, and Danzhu was skilled at weiqi." Confucius said: "Are there not players of bo and chess? To play them is still better than doing nothing." We examine: flicking chess [tanqi] began in the palace of Wei; Emperor Wen was fond of it, and whenever he struck with his handkerchief, he never missed. The second character has the fanqie [p]aŋ + [m]ak, meaning liubo; categorized under 十).
