2.51

瘡疣 (The first character is pronounced with the fanqie *ch-*, [chuang], from 楚 and 霜. The *Liji* states: 'If one has sores on the head, one washes it.' The *Shuowen* writes it as 創, meaning a wound; the ancient script writes it with 刀, resembling a knife entering. The second character is pronounced with the fanqie *y-*, [you], from 有 and 求. A small one is called a wart (疣); a large one is called an excrescence (贅). The *Gujin zhengzi* writes it as 𤴨; 贅 is pronounced with the fanqie *zh-*, [zhui], from 佳 and 茵.)
