麟麕（上栗珍反公羊傳云麟仁獸也亦從𠫤作𪊭義同已釋訖說文云從鹿粦聲粦音隣下俱雲反公羊傳云有麋而無角是也說文從鹿囷聲囷音區筠反籀文從禾作麋亦作[鹿/若]音訓並同也）。

Qilin and hornless deer (麟麕; the first character is pronounced with the fanqie 栗珍. The Gongyang zhuan says: "The lin is a benevolent beast." It is also written with 𠫤 as 𪊭 with the same meaning, already explained above. The Shuowen says: "It takes the radical 鹿 with 粦 as phonetic"; 粦 is sounded 隣. The second character is pronounced with the fanqie 俱雲. The Gongyang zhuan says: "Having the appearance of a large stag but without horns, this is it." The Shuowen gives it with the radical 鹿 and 囷 as phonetic; 囷 has the fanqie sound 區筠. In large seal script it is written with 禾 as 麋, and also written as [鹿/若], with identical sound and definition).
