51.18

蘇甕(烏貢反方言云自關而東趙魏之郊謂大者為甕小者名甖古今正字從瓦雍聲也或從公作瓮俗字也)。

"Ghee jar" (Fanqie: 烏 + 貢 [wèng]. The Fangyan says: 'From the Pass eastward, in the countryside of Zhao and Wei, large ones are called weng (甕) and small ones are named ying (甖).' The Gujin zhengzi states that it derives from the earthenware (瓦) radical with 雍 as phonetic; some have it with 公 as 瓮, which is a vulgar character).
