鑽𤎩(上祖官反顧野王云鑽鐫鑿也考聲刺也孟子穴也古今正字穿也形聲字也下音遂杜注左傳云取火之具也凡有五類火鑽火石火珠火鏡火鐵是也古作㸂鐆檖鐩五體並通)。

鑽𤎩 (The first character is *z-g-. Gu Yewang says: "鑽 means to chisel and bore." The Kaosheng says: "To pierce." Mengzi uses it as to hole into. The Gujin zhengzi says: "To bore through; a phono-semantic character." The second character is pronounced suì. Du's commentary on the Zuo zhuan says: "An implement for obtaining fire. There are five kinds altogether: fire drill, fire flint, fire pearl, fire mirror, and fire steel." In antiquity it was written as 㸂, 鐆, 檖, and 鐩; all five forms are interchangeable.)
