澡漱 (Rinsing and washing: for the first character, fanqie 子皓 [zǎo], the Shuowen says: '澡 means to wash.' The Liji says: 'The scholar washes his body and bathes his virtue; he states his words and remains composed and still.' For the second character, fanqie 蘇秦 [sù], the Qieyun says: 'To rinse the mouth.' The Book of Jin records: 'Sun Chu said to Wang Wuzi: "The reason I rinse with stones is that I wish to sharpen my teeth."' The vinaya text writes it as 藻, which refers to duckweed and water plants intertwining to make patterns; it does not have the meaning of 澡漱, washing and rinsing.)
