What 筠 means

筠 means bamboo’s green outer skin, then bamboo itself. The literary Mandarin reading is yún, with a rising tone; dictionaries also list a bamboo-flute sense.

A Song-era supplement to 说文解字, an early Chinese character dictionary, glosses it as “bamboo skin.”

竹 signals bamboo; 均 is the sound component, not its usual sense “even.”
