13.92

圂豬 (Pigsty and pig: the first [hun has] the fanqie 魂悶; the Cangjiepian says: 'A hun is the dwelling place of pigs.' The Shuowen jiezi says: 'A hun is a latrine.' It is an ideogrammic compound. The second [zhu has] the fanqie 貯驢; the Shuowen jiezi says: 'A pig whose hairs grow in clusters of three is called a zhu.' It is formed with the pig radical 豕 as a phono-semantic character. In the sūtra text, writing it with the dog radical 犬 as 猪 is a vulgar character).
