36.48

蟲窠(上逐融反經作虫俗傳誤也下苦和反說文窠空也在穴曰窠樹上曰巢從穴果聲)。

蟲窠: The first character has the fanqie zhu + rong (chóng). The scripture writes it as 虫, which is a vulgar scribal error. The second character has the fanqie ku + he (kē). The *Shuowen* says: 'Ke means hollow; in a hole it is called ke (burrow), on a tree it is called chao (nest); composed of the 'hole' (穴) semantic and guo (果) phonetic.'
