畫牆(上胡罵反爾雅云畫形也釋名云畫挂也以五色挂於物上也說文云從聿田四界聿所以畫也一即地也律文作畫俗字下而羊反說文垣也從嗇片聲律文作[壙-黃+(干/皿)]或作[土*(主/皿)]皆非本字)。

Painted wall (畫牆: the first character is [pronounced with the] fanqie [initial and final of] 胡 and 罵; the Erya says it means depicting forms; the Shiming says 'huà' means to hang, using five colours to hang upon an object; the Shuowen says it takes 'brush' (聿) and 'fields with four boundaries' (田), the brush being that which draws, and 'one' representing the ground; the Vinaya text uses the vulgar form 畫. The second character is [pronounced with the] fanqie [initial and final of] 而 and 羊; the Shuowen says it means an earthen wall; it takes the 'wall' radical and the phonetic 'piàn'; the Vinaya text writes it as [壙-黃+(干/皿)] or [土*(主/皿)], neither of which is the original character).
