2.59

楞伽 (The first character is pronounced with the fanqie *l-*, [leng], from 勒 and 登; it is a popular character, the orthodox form being written 棱, taking 木 as semantic and 夌 as phonetic. In proper Sanskrit it should be said as *laṅgā*, which is the name of a jewel. Sanskrit terms do not require character-etymological meaning; 䮚 is pronounced with the fanqie *l-*, [leng], from 勒 and 鄧.)
