Dregs and lees (糟粕: the first character is pronounced like 遭 [zāo]; the second is pō + mò fanqie [pò]. Xu Shen says: "糟 (dregs) are the residue of wine. 粕 (lees) are already pressed-out dregs." The Gujin zhengzi says: "The two characters 糟粕 refer to the surplus dregs of wine. Both have the rice radical, with 曹 and 白 as phonetics.").
