41.183

溼木(失入反說文幽溼也從水一覆土而有水故濕也經作濕非也濕音他匝反水名也在東武陽非溼潤字也筆授人不知有正體字也)。

溼木 "Damp wood" (Pronounced shi-ru [shi]. The Shuowen jiezi says: "Dark and damp; formed from 水 'water' and 一 covering the ground where there is water, hence wet." In the scripture it is written 濕, which is incorrect; 濕 is pronounced ta-za, the name of a river in Dongwuyang, not the character for moisture. The person taking dictation did not know the standard orthodox character).
