偽濫 Spurious and fraudulent (the first character is wei + kui [wěi]; the Guangya says: "To deceive." Zheng's commentary on the Liji says: "False." The Shuowen says: "Deceptive; [the character] derives from 'person' with 'wei' phonetic; kui has the sound kuì." The second character is lan + dan [làn]; the Kaosheng says: "'Lan' means false, careless and excessive." The Mao Shi says: "Neither transgressing nor overstepping." Gu Yewang says: "Spreading excessively throughout the world." The Shuowen says: "To soak; [the character] derives from 'water' with 'jian' phonetic").
