29.11

Defiled and burdened 累染 (The upper character has the fanqie lü + wei, falling tone; some read it in the rising tone, which deviates from the meaning and is not accepted; the Jixun says: “Family burdens.” The Kaosheng says: “Implicated in wrongdoing; to be attached to.” The Guangya says: “To accumulate.” The Shuowen says: “To add to; deriving from mi 糸; originally written 累, clerical script changed it to three tian 田, the meaning being glossed this way; 厽 has the fanqie li + shui, depicting the shape of piled-up ramparts, in the rising tone.” The lower character has the fanqie er + yan; the Kaosheng says: “To contaminate.” The Guangya says: “To adhere.” The Shuowen says: “Dyeing silk into colored fabric; deriving from shui 水 with the phonetic za 杂”).
