61.39

To irrigate and water (溉灌): The first character has the pronunciation of 記; the second character has the pronunciation of 貫. Gu Yewang states that 溉 refers to pouring and irrigating. The Yunquan states that 灌 also means to irrigate; the two characters gloss each other and are used identically, both formed with the water radical (水) as phonetic-ideographic characters, with 雚 having the same pronunciation as above.
