水渚(之與反爾疋小洲曰渚李巡曰四方有水獨高可居故曰渚釋名云渚者遮也體高能遮水使從旁迴也)。

Islet (水渚: fanqie 之與 [zhī + yǔ = zhǔ]; the Erya says: 'A small islet is called 渚'; Li Xun says: 'Having water on four sides, yet elevated alone so that one can reside there, hence called a 渚'; the Shiming says: 'A 渚 acts to obstruct [遮]; its body is elevated and can obstruct the water, making it flow around the sides').
