What 䴳 means
A regional name for the grain starter cake of brewing. The early dictionary Shuowen Jiezi glosses it 餅麴 — 'starter cake': 麥 supplies the sense, 穴 the sound.
The Han-era dialect lexicon Fangyan lists it among regional 麴 names — the one used in the old state of Qi, east of the Yellow and Ji rivers.
Lexicographic; gloss it outside specialist Chinese contexts.
