煙燄（上咽賢反字書正從垔作煙論文從因作烟俗用字也蒼頡篇云煙熅也廣雅云臭也國語云焚煙達於上也說文云火氣也從火垔聲熅音慍雲反垔音一人反下閻塹反案字書正從炎作燄論文作焰俗用字也孔注尚書云若火燃燄燄尚微其所及也字書云燄火燄也說文云火行微燄也從炎臽聲也臽音𨺂）。

Smoke and flame (煙燄; the upper character is yan + xian [fanqie]; in character dictionaries it correctly takes the radical 垔 as 煙; in the treatise text it takes 因 as 烟, which is a vulgar variant. The Cangjie pian says: "Yan means dense vapor." The Guangya says: "It means odor." The Guoyu says: "The burning smoke reached above." The Shuowen says: "The vapor of fire; with the fire radical and the phonetic 垔." The pronunciation of 熅 is wen + yun [fanqie]; 垔 is yi + ren [fanqie]. The lower character is yan + qian [fanqie]; checking character dictionaries, it correctly takes the radical 炎 as 燄; in the treatise text it is written as 焰, which is a vulgar variant. Kong's commentary on the Shangshu says: "Like a burning flame when it is still faint, where it reaches." Dictionaries say: "Yan means fire flame." The Shuowen says: "Fire moving in a faint flame; with the radical 炎 and the phonetic 臽." The pronunciation of 臽 is xian [𨺂]).
