Jiaocan (澆灒, the first character also written 𣻏, fanqie 古堯 [g/yao]). The Shuowen says: 'Jiao means to sprinkle and soak.' The second character is also written in the two forms 濺 and 𠵖, both with the fanqie 子旦 [z/dan]. The Shuowen says: 'Can means mutually splashing and soiling.' The Records of the Grand Historian says: 'Within five paces, blood will splash (濺) upon Your Majesty's robes,' written with 濺. Yang Quan's Wuli lun says: 'Fearing he did not know the flavour, he spat and splattered (𠵖).' South of the Yangtze this pronunciation is used; east of the mountains it is pronounced jian, with the fanqie 子見 [z/jian].
