墾殖 [Cultivate and multiply] (the first character is pronounced with the fanqie kě + hěn [kěn]. The Cang Jie pian states: "Kěn means to plow." Guo's commentary on the Fangyan states: "To plow and cultivate using effort." The Gujin zhengzi states: "It takes 'tǔ' (土) as its semantic classifier and 'kěn' (豤) as its phonetic component." The sūtra text writes it with 'quǎn' (犬) as '墾', which is a vulgar character. The second character is pronounced with the fanqie chéng + lì [zhí]. Du's commentary on the Zuo zhuan states: "Zhí means to grow." The Cang Jie pian states: "Zhí means to breed / proliferate." Dictionaries state: "To plant." The Shuowen states: "It takes 'è' (歺) as its semantic classifier and 'zhí' (直) as its phonetic component"; '豤' is pronounced with the fanqie kūn + běn [kěn]; '歺' is pronounced like jīn).
