派演 (the first character is pronounced [fanqie: 拍 + 賣]; the Guangya says: "派 means water branching out on its own into streams." Shuowen jiezi says: "派 means a divergent stream of water branching off; composed of reversed 水 [water]." In clerical script it is written 𠂢; in the treatise it is written with 水, which is also the same. The second character is pronounced [fanqie: 延 + 典]; Jia Kui's commentary on the Guoyu says: "演 means to extend." Wei Zhao says: "Water and earth vapors permeating is 演." The Cangjie pian says: "演 means to lengthen." Shuowen jiezi says: "演 means the appearance of a long-flowing stream; composed of 水 [water] with 寅 as the phonetic").
