64.22

如斤 (Like an axe: pronounced with the fanqie 居銀 [jīn]. The Shuowen jiezi states: "A 斤 is for chopping wood; a 斤 is a mattock." The Vinaya text writes 釿, pronounced with the fanqie 牛引 [yǐn]. The Shuowen jiezi states: "釿 means to trim (劑)." 劑 is pronounced with the fanqie 子隨 [zī], meaning shears. Trimming (劑) is not the meaning here.)
