59.42

Joined boats (船舫; fanqie: 甫 + 妄 [fǎng]; the Shuowen writes it in the two forms 方 and 汸; the Erya says: "舫 means boat"; Guo Pu says: "Joining two boats"; the Tongsu wen says: "Connecting boats forms a 舫, which is 方"; in the Vinaya text some write 枋, pronounced fāng; the Shuowen says: "枋 is wood that can make [shafts]", which is not the meaning of the character here).
