剡浮(以𮉼反或云閻浮提或作譫浮又云贍部皆梵訛轉也剡浮者從樹為名提者略也應言提鞞波此云洲)。

Jambū (剡浮: with the fanqie 以𮉼, *yán*; or called Jambudvīpa, or written 譫浮, or called 贍部, all of which are corrupt phonetic shifts from Sanskrit. *Jambū* takes its name from the tree; *dvīpa* is abbreviated, properly to be stated as *dvīpa* [提鞞波], which translates here as 'continent').
