31.115

Ravines and valleys (谿谷: the first character has the fanqie [kʰ]ei + [x]ei. Guo [Pu]'s commentary to the Erya says: "Water flowing into a river." The Shuowen jiezi says: "A mountain torrent with no outlet is called a 谿; categorized under 谷 with 奚 as its phonetic." The sūtra writes it under 山 as 嵠, or under 水, both of which are incorrect).
