What 醝 means

It names white wine and can also mean salt.

In classical Chinese, 醝 names white wine; dictionary records also connect it with 鹺 (salt) and list 山醝 as the name of a millet. The earliest known dictionary record for 醝 is in 玉篇, a Chinese dictionary compiled around 543. The Taiwan Ministry of Education dictionary entry notes that the earlier 說文 does not record 醝.

酇 is a documented connected form for 醝 in the white-wine sense. It also has separate place-name and administrative meanings, so it is not a general substitute.

Literary and rare; best suited to a classical quotation, dictionary discussion, or specialist text.

Alone in a modern message, it may look like an unknown character or typo rather than a wine reference.
