2.102

Dwellings and neighborhoods (廛里: the first character has the fanqie 直 + 連; the commentary on the Rites of Zhou says, “Chán means dwelling.” Zheng's commentary on the Book of Rites says, “Chán means an inn or shop in a market.” Yupian says, “An open space of one and a half mǔ within a city is called a chán.” In the sūtras it is written 厘 or [堐-圭+(烈-列+里)], both of which are incorrect. The second character has the fanqie 良 + 耳; the Rites of Zhou says, “Five households make a lín; five lín make a lǐ; lǐ also means a residence”).
