66.41

Tasting and sipping (甞啜; the upper character is shang + zhang [fanqie]; in character dictionaries it is correctly written with 旨 as 甞; in the treatise text it is written with 口 as 𭋌, which is incorrect. The Kaosheng says: "Chang means to savor." Gu Yewang says: "Chang means to taste it in the mouth." The Baihu tong says: "It means tasting the new grains." The Wenzidian shuo says: "The name of the autumn sacrifice; with the radical 旨 and phonetic 尚." The lower character is chuan + lie [fanqie]; in character dictionaries it is written with 欠 as 歠, which is the correct form; in the treatise text it is written with 口 as 啜, which is the vulgar usage. The Guangya says: "Chuo means to eat." The Erya says: "It means to consume." The Wenzidian shuo says: "To taste and eat; with the mouth radical and phonetic 叕." The pronunciation of 叕 is chuai + lie [fanqie]).
