6.91

Shaving off (鬀除: the first is pronounced with the fanqie 梯帝 [tì]. The Kaosheng says: "Ti means shaving hair." The Shuowen says: "To shave hair; deriving from 'hair' [髟] with 弟 as phonetic. For adults it is called kun; for children it is called ti." In the sūtra it is written with 'knife' as 剃, a vulgar character. 梯 is pronounced with the fanqie 體奚 [tī]; 𩮜 is pronounced tì; 髠 is pronounced kūn; 髟 is pronounced piáo).
