匙㪻 (the first character is chí, fanqie 是之 [sh- + -(zh)i]: The Fangyan says: 'A spoon (bǐ) is called a chí.' The Shuowen jiezi says it takes the bǐ (匕) semantic and shì (是) phonetic. The sūtra writes it with the wood semantic as 𣏚; the Kaosheng says this refers to the crossbar wood atop a millstone, which is not the meaning of the sūtra. The second character is juàn, fanqie 厥願 [j- + -(y)uan]: The Guangya says: 'Juàn means to ladle out (shū).' The Cangjie pian says: 'Shū means to take.' The Shuowen jiezi says it takes the dǒu (斗) semantic and luán (䜌) phonetic. The sūtra writes it with the hand semantic as 捲, pronounced quán, which is not the meaning of the sūtra. 䜌 has the fanqie 力專 [l- + -(zh)uan]).
