53.6

閻浮提 (also named Shanfuzhou [剡浮洲], or called Zhanfuzhou [譫浮洲], or called Jambudvīpa [贍部洲]. Jambū [閻浮] takes its name from a tree; 提 is an abbreviation, which properly should be dvīpa [提鞞波], meaning 'continent' here. 譫 is pronounced with the fanqie 之 + 含 [zhān]; the Picang says it means loquacious.)
