榛叢（上土臻反淮南子云榛木叢也考聲草木密盛也文字典說從木秦聲也下徂紅反孔注尚書云叢聚也書云凡物之聚曰叢也說文云以草聚生日叢也從莘取聲莘音土角反律文作叢不成字非也）。

Hazel thicket (榛叢): the first character is pronounced with the fanqie tu-zhen (zhen). The Huainanzi states: "Zhen means a cluster of trees." The Kaosheng states: "Dense and luxuriant vegetation." The Wenzi dianshuo states: "It takes 'wood' (木) as semantic classifier and has qin (秦) as phonetic component." The second character is pronounced with the fanqie cu-hong (cong). Kong [Anguo]'s commentary on the Shangshu states: "Cong means to gather together." The Shangshu states: "Any gathering of things is called cong." The Shuowen states: "To grow thickly like vegetation is called cong; it takes xin (莘) as semantic classifier and qu (取) as phonetic component." Xin is pronounced with the fanqie tu-jiao (cuo). In the Vinaya text it is written as 叢, which does not form the proper character and is incorrect.
