The \*Mao Shi\* says: 'Zhanzhan denotes the towering and precipitous appearance of mountain rocks.' It is also written as 巉, 𥕌, or 磛; all three forms are popular characters and are used interchangeably. The second character is pronounced \*ya\* + \*xian\* \[yán\]. The commentary on the \*Mao Shi\* says: 'Yanyan denotes the appearance of heaped boulders.' Du \[Yu\]'s commentary on the \*Zuozhuan\* states: 'Yan means perilous.'

It is sometimes written with "stone" \[石\] as 礹, which is a popular character. In ancient script it is written with 品 as 嵒, used interchangeably). > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 75.20](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2128.75.20) - [Next: 75.22](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2128.75.22) - [Up: 75](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2128.75) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2128~en-mt.75.21) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2128.75.21](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2128.75.21) · Pramāṇa
