Yeast and ferment 𥷥糱 (the upper character has the fanqie: 芎鞠 [qū]; the lower has the fanqie: 言竭 [niè]). Kong's commentary to the Shangshu says: 'Sweet wine requires yeast and ferment to be completed.' The Shuowen jiezi says: '糱 is sprouted grain.' It takes 米 ('rice') as semantic and 辥 as phonetic. The edition under collation takes 麥 as semantic, writing 𮮂, which is incorrect.
