邊鄙（悲美反史記云鄙陋也杜預注左傳云鄙邊邑謂邊邑郊野之外去國都遼遠名為鄙陋鄙人言不達詩書禮樂名為鄙夫也說文云五酇為鄙從邑[口/(百-日+回)]聲酇音祖短反）。

Remote borderland (邊鄙) (The second character has the fanqie bei + mei [b-]. The Shiji says: 'Bi (鄙) means rustic and crude.' Du Yu's commentary on the Zuo zhuan says: 'Bi refers to a border settlement; that is, situated outside the outskirts of the border towns, far away from the national capital, hence called crude and remote. A rustic person (鄙人) who does not understand the Odes, Documents, rites, or music is called a vulgar fellow (鄙夫).' The Shuowen says: 'Five za (酇) make a bi; derived from yi (settlement) with [口/(百-日+回)] as phonetic; za has the fanqie zu + duan [z-]').
