鹹味 (The first character is pronounced with the fanqie *x-*, [xian], from 遐 and 巖. The 'Hongfan' chapter of the *Shangshu* states: 'Soaking downward produces saltiness.' The *Erya* states: '鹹 means bitter.' The *Shuowen* states: 'The flavor of the north; it takes 鹵 as semantic and 咸 as phonetic.' Sūtra texts write it with 酉 as 醎, which is incorrect.)
