85.261

裌紵 (The upper [character] is jian + qia [jiá]. The Guangya says: "裌 means double-layered." In the treatise it is written as 夾, which is incorrect; according to the Shenglei, its sound is xie [yè] and it does not have the meaning of 夾 [double-layered], so that is not adopted. The lower [character] is chu + lü [zhù]. In the Rites of Zhou, the Cloth Custodian is in charge of coarse hemp yarn and ramie items. Zheng's commentary says: "緦 [coarse hemp cloth] is a fifteen-sheng cloth stripped by half; furthermore, that which is white and fine is called 紵 [ramie]." The Shuowen [notes that it] derives from 糸 with 宁 as phonetic; 宁 is zhi + lü [zhù].)
