Granary and round bin (倉與篅: the last character is pronounced with the fanqie 垂緣. Xu Shen's commentary on the Huainanzi says: "A chuán [篅] is a round bin [[竺-二+(巾-〡+(乳-孚))]." The Wenzidian shuo says: "Woven from bamboo or wood into a round shape, which can contain grains and wheat; it takes bamboo [竹] as semantic classifier and zhuān [耑] as phonetic." [竺-二+(巾-〡+(乳-孚))] is pronounced dùn).
