百齡（歷丁反禮記古者年齡齒亦齡皆壽也鄭注禮記云年夭氣齒人壽之數也廣雅齡年也古今正字從齒令聲或為秢也）。

百齡 "A hundred years of age / longevity" (fanqie: 歷丁 [líng]. The Liji says: 'In ancient times, 年 (years), 齡 (age), and 齒 (teeth) were all 齡, meaning lifespan.' Zheng's commentary to the Liji says: 'Years, early death, breath, and teeth are counts of human lifespan.' The Guangya says: '齡 means years.' The Gujin Zhengzi states it is composed with 齒 and has 令 as its phonetic component; it is also written as 秢).
