93.181

滬瀆 [Hudu]: The first character is read with the fanqie hu + gu (hù). The Shanhaijing says: 'The Yellow Emperor came to the waters of Xuanhu, and a divine turtle emerged bearing a chart.' It refers to this water. The Wenzidian shuo says it is composed of the [semantic] radical 'water' (水) and the sound hu (扈); the sound of hu is the same as the above. The second character is pronounced dú.
