63.36

鞋屨 Shoes and sandals (the first character is jie + jie [xié], which is a vulgar character; the standard form is written with 'xi' as 鞵. The Shiming says: "'Xie' means to loosen." The Wenzidian shuo says: "Untanned leather shoes, which are modern hemp shoes; [the character] derives from 'leather' with 'gui' phonetic; di is pronounced ding + xi [dī]." The second character is ju + yu [jù]; the Cang Jie pian says: "'Ju' means shoes (lü)." The Shuowen says: "Shoes (di); [the character] derives from an abbreviated 'lü' (履) and 'lou'; lou has the sound lǒu").
