Fat and grease (肪𦚻): The first character is pronounced like 方. The second character is read with the fanqie 桑 + 安. The Shuowen says: '肪 means fat.' The Yunying says: 'Congealed grease.' The Guangcang says: 'Fat, grease, and tallow.' The Ziyu says: 'It derives from 肉 with 𠕋 providing the phonetic.' The Tongsuwen says: 'What is at the waist is called 肪; what is at the stomach is called 𦚻'; this is it.
