14.60

尖幖 (The upper character is pronounced jian1 [jie-yan fan]; it is an associative compound character. The lower character is pronounced biao1 [bi-yao fan]. The Shuowen jiezi says: 'A banner.' A character book says: 'The tip of a pole.' The standard form has 'cloth' (巾) with 票 as phonetic. The two characters 灬 and 票 have the same pronunciation. The sūtra text writes 標 with 'wood' (木) or with 'hand' (手), which is an erroneous usage).
