【牟婆洛揭拉婆】或云牟呼婆羯落婆,此云青白色寶,今名硨磲。《尚書》大傳云:「大貝如車之渠,渠謂車輞,其狀類之,故名車渠。」渠,魁也。後人字加玉石。

[Musāragalva] Or called muhupojieluopo; here translated as blue-and-white treasure, now named tridacna (giant clam). The Shangshu dazhuan states: 'A large shell resembling the rut of a carriage (chequ); qu means carriage rim; its shape resembles it, hence it is called chequ.' Qu means large. Later people added the jade and stone radicals to the characters.
