84.263

廁圂(渾困反蒼頡篇云圂豕居也說文云圂廁也典說從豕在口中象形字也口音韋論文從水作溷誤也)。

Privy and pigsty (廁圂: [圂 is] hun-kun fan [hùn]. The Cang Jie pian says: “Hun is where pigs live.” The Shuowen [jiezi] says: “Hun means a privy.” The Dianshuo says: “Formed with a pig (豕) inside an enclosure (口); it is a pictographic character.” 口 is pronounced wei [wéi]. In the text of the treatise, written with 水 as 溷 is an error).
