僄樂(上匹妙反方言云僄輕也荊楚之間謂輕為僄經文錯書𭀅字從人從樂古文僄字從人從囟從火作𠑎書寫不識便書從票錯之甚矣說文僄輕也從人票聲今俗變火為小也)。
Frivolous joy [僄樂] (the first character is pronounced *pi* + *miao* [piào]. The *Fangyan* states: 'Piao means light.' In the region of Jing and Chu, lightness is called *piao*. The sūtra text erroneously wrote it as 𭀅, combining "person" [人] and "music" [樂]. The ancient character for *piao* took "person" [人], "fontanel" [囟], and "fire" [火] to make 𠑎; copyists did not recognise it and simply wrote it with *piao* [票], which is a severe mistake. The *Shuowen* states: 'Piao means light; it takes "person" [人] as semantic classifier and has *piao* [票] as phonetic component.' Nowadays, popular script alters the "fire" [火] to "small" [小]).
