80.134

日旰 ("The sun grew late"): The second character is pronounced with the fanqie 玕 + 岸 (gàn). Du's commentary on the Zuo zhuan states: 'Gàn is like the sun growing late; it also means evening.' The Shuowen jiezi gives the same meaning; it takes the radical 日 (sun) with 干 as the phonetic. The Kaosheng writes it with 竿 as 𣈨, with the same sound as above.
