飆聚 The first character is pronounced b- + -i- / -iɛu [biāo]. The Erya says: "A whirlwind (fúyáo) is called a biāo." Guo Pu says: "A violent wind blowing from above downwards." It is also written 猋, with three "dogs"; the Shuowen jiezi says it is derived from "wind" with biāo as phonetic. The second character is pronounced dz- + -i / -ioX [jù]. Du Yu's commentary on the Zuozhuan says: "A multitude." The Shuowen jiezi says: "An assembly." It is derived from 乑 (pronounced yín) for phonetic value.
