煙焰 [Smoke and flames] (The first character is yan + xian fan. The Guangya says: '煙 means stench.' The Kaosheng says: 'Smoke from fire.' The Shuowen says: 'Vapor of fire.' It is from 火 [fire] with 垔 as phonetic. It is also written as 燭. In ancient script it was written as 煙; in seal script as [宋-木+((栗-木+土)*欠)]. The second character is yi + nian fan. The Shuowen says: 'Fire advancing faintly.' The orthodox form is 爓, now abbreviated. It is also written as 𦦨: flame of fire. The Hanshu writes it as 炎, which is a phonetic loan).
