甜物（牒拈反廣雅云[甘*古]甘也家語云剖而食之甛如蜜是也說文美也從甘舌聲論作甜俗字拈音念添反）。

"Sweet things" (Fanqie: 牒 + 拈 [tián]. The Guangya says: '[甘*古] means sweet.' The Jiayu says: 'Cleaving and eating it, it was sweet as honey.' This is it. The Shuowen jiezi says: 'Delicious.' It derives from sweet (甘) with tongue (舌) as phonetic. The treatise writes it as 甜, which is a vulgar character. 拈 has the fanqie: 念 + 添 [niān]).
