浮瓠（乎故反郭注爾雅云瓠壺也說文從瓜夸聲夸音詡于反又上聲呼論從艸作[荂*瓜]俗字也）。

浮瓠 [Floating gourd] (The fanqie is 乎故 [hū + gù]. Guo Pu's commentary on the Erya says: '瓠 means a calabash bottle.' The Shuowen jiezi says: 'It is formed with the "gourd" semantic component and the phonetic 夸.' The sound of 夸 is 詡于 [xǔ + yú], also pronounced in the rising tone. Its form in the treatise with the "grass" radical as [荂*瓜] is a vulgar character).
