17.62

Amusement and pleasure (戲樂; the first character is [pronounced with the] fanqie xī + [j]ì. The Erya says: “Xì means to jest.” Guo's commentary says: “It means to banter.” The Shuowen says: “It takes gē ‘halberd’ as semantic classifier and xì as phonetic.” The scripture's writing with xū as 戱 is erroneous. The second character has the pronunciation luò. 䖒 is pronounced xī).
