51.18

"Ghee jar" (Fanqie: 烏 + 貢 [wèng]. The Fangyan says: 'From the Pass eastward, in the countryside of Zhao and Wei, large ones are called weng (甕) and small ones are named ying (甖).' The Gujin zhengzi states that it derives from the earthenware (瓦) radical with 雍 as phonetic; some have it with 公 as 瓮, which is a vulgar character).
