65.194

一𢹍 [yī xī, one ladle] (fanqie: 虛 [xū] / 奇 [qí]. The Fangyan says: 'Between Chen, Chu, Song, and Wei, a 𧋠 [ladle] is called a 𢹍.' Guo Pu says: 'A 𢹍 or 𧋠 is a gourd ladle; today in Jiangdong a ladle is called a xì.' The Vinaya text writes it as 桸 as a phonetic loan; the correct pronunciation of 稀 is fanqie: 虛 [xū] / 衣 [yī]; 桸 is the name of a tree whose sap is edible, but 桸 does not have this meaning here).
