8.31

To cover and trap (覆罩: the upper character is fang-wu [fanqie]; the explanation has already appeared above. The lower is zhuo-jiao [fanqie]. The commentary to the Mao Shi says: "罩 means a basket-trap (篧)." 篧 is pronounced kuo. Guo Pu's commentary to the Erya says: "罩 is a cage for catching fish." The Shuowen says: "A bamboo implement for catching fish. It takes its semantic classifier from 冈 'net' and 卓 is the phonetic." It is also written as 䍜, 羄, 䈇, or 箌, which are all ancient characters).
