The Shuowen jiezi says: 'Formed from 犬 (dog) with 鬳 phonetic.' 鬳 has the fanqie yán + jiàn [xiàn]. Transmitted texts write it as 捊, which is erroneous and not adopted here.

Currently transmitted texts all write it as 縶, pronounced with the fanqie zhēn + lì [zhí], which is incorrect. Examining its meaning and usage, it must be white fine cotton (白㲲); writing it with the garment radical as 褺 also loses its meaning. Writing it as 㲲 is correct now).

100.49

Thickly accumulated (蒙積: [積 has the] fanqie zī + sì [jì]. The Shuowen jiezi says: 'Jī means to gather. Formed from 禾 (grain) with 責 phonetic.' Transmitted texts write it with the grass radical as 𧂐, which is a vulgar character).
