9.85

咍然笑 (Laughing merrily: for the first character, fanqie 呼來 [hāi], the Fangyan says: 'People of Chu call laughing 咍.' For the last character, fanqie 私妙 [xiào], the Liji says: 'When holding the funeral ropes one does not laugh; when attending a mourning service one does not laugh.' The Shuowen says: 'Joyful laughing; it depicts a dog holding bamboo on its head and making merry, hence laughing.' Those who write the two forms 㗛 or 𠸍 are both incorrect.)
