The Mao Commentary on the Classic of Poetry states: 'The locust-like insect that eats the core of grain is called míng.' The Shuowen jiezi also states: 'That which eats cereal leaves; it takes the radical 虫 (insect) with 冥 as the phonetic.' The second character is pronounced with the fanqie 騰 + 勒 (tè). The Erya states: 'Insects that eat leaves are called tè.' The Classic of Poetry states: 'Remove their míng and tè; when officials extort and borrow, that is when tè are born.' The Shuowen jiezi states that it takes the radical 虫 (insect) with 貣 as the phonetic; 貣 is pronounced with the fanqie 他 + 勒 (tè). The catalogue text writes 𧑞, which is identical to the Yueling. Examining the character books, 𧑞 is pronounced téng; the Erya states: 'A téng is a snake, belonging to the dragon class,' which is not the meaning of míng-tè. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 80.132](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2128.80.132) - [Next: 80.134](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2128.80.134) - [Up: 80](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2128.80) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2128~en-mt.80.133) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2128.80.133](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2128.80.133) · Pramāṇa
