8.118

Lāochū (scoop out / pull out) (the first character has the fanqie lǔ + dāo. The Yupian says: "To take." The Zilin says: "To grope and fetch an object." Formed with the "hand" radical and láo phonetic. The Vinaya text writes it with the "water" radical as 澇, pronounced láng + dào, which does not have the meaning of scooped out. The second character has the fanqie chǐ + lǜ. The Qieyun says: "To advance; to go far." The Shuowen jiezi says: "The character chū derives from the ancient character chū, depicting spreading out on four sides." The Vinaya text writes it with two "mountain" characters as 出, which is a scribal error).
