寙墮（余乳反尒雅寙勞也郭璞曰勞苦者多墮寙也亦嬾也言嬾人不能自起如瓜瓠在地故字從瓜又懶人恒在室故從穴論文或作嬾字）。

寙墮 "Indolent and negligent" (fanqie: 余乳 [yǔ]. The Erya says: "寙 means fatigued." Guo Pu says: "Those who suffer hardships often become indolent and slack; it also means lazy." It means that a lazy person cannot lift themselves up, like a melon or gourd on the ground, hence the character is composed with 瓜 ('melon'). Moreover, a lazy person always remains in the room, hence it is composed with 穴 ('cave/dwelling'). In the treatise, it is sometimes written with the character 嬾 ['lazy']).
