75.33
Obstructed by pondweed [𣝆藻] (the first character is pronounced *wo* + *gai* [ài]. The *Wenzi dianshuo* states: 'To obstruct and stop; it takes "wood" [木] as semantic classifier and has *yi* [疑] as phonetic component.' Nowadays in popular usage it is written with "stone" [石] as 礙, or with "mind" [心] as 𢣕, which are also acceptable. The second character is pronounced *zao* + *lao* [zǎo]. The commentary on the *Mao Shi* says: 'A trailing aquatic plant.' Kong [Anguo]'s commentary on the *Shangshu* states: 'An aquatic plant with patterns.' The *Han Shi* says: 'That which floats is called zao; that which is submerged is called ping; both are patterned water plants where fish and turtles hide.' The *Shuowen* omits it and gives no explanation).
