再醮 (remarriage): The fanqie 焦 (jiāo) + 笑 (xiào) [jiào]. The Yunquan says: "Performing a sacrifice where one drinks wine alone without the reciprocal ritual of offering and toasting." In the Liji: "A father cups wine alone for his son and commands him to go receive his bride"; hence it refers to the wedding toast of taking a wife. It is a phono-semantic character.
