陶師 (Potter: [陶 has] the fanqie 唐勞 [táo]. The Jixun says: “A kiln.” The sound is 姚 [yáo]. A kiln is an earthen chamber for firing pottery. The orthodox graph is written 匋. The Kaosheng says: “A pottery kiln, invented by Kunwu.” It is composed of [午/止] (fanqie 甫苟 [fǒu]) and 勹 (sound 包 [bāo]). Now in the sūtras it is written with the radical 阜 as 陶, meaning Taogao [a place name]; inherited usage also accepts it.)
