Fishy and rank (The first character is pronounced xīng. Zheng's commentary on the Zhouli states: 'The foul smell of pig fat and dog fat.' It also says: 'Meat having grain-like spots is like stars.' It is also written as 胜 or 鮏. The Shuowen says: 'Pigs eating when stars appear; now it refers to meat developing parasites; a phono-semantic character.' The second character is sāng + dāo fanqie. Its gloss is the same as xīng; it takes 'flesh' with zào as phonetic; zào is pronounced the same as above. This is the modern character).
