87.29

汧渭(上遣堅反下音謂二水名也漢書注云汧水出汧陽縣北入渭汭說文二字並從水幵胃皆聲幵音堅)。

汧渭 The Qian and Wei rivers: the first character is pronounced with the fanqie 遣 + 堅; the second is pronounced 謂 (wèi). Names of two rivers. The Book of Han commentary says: 'The Qian River originates north of Qianyang County and flows into the inlet of the Wei River.' The Shuowen says both characters take the water radical (水); 幵 and 胃 are both phonetic; 幵 is pronounced 堅 (jiān).
