English meaning : to wash, wash clean
Russian meaning[s]: обливать, опрыскивать, мочить(ся); мокнуть, вм. 灑; [xǐ] мыть(ся), умывать(ся), вм. 洗; [xiǎn] 1) почтительный; 2) дрожать от холода; 3) глубокий
Comments: The character is probably originally just a variant of 洗 *sǝ̄rʔ q.v., and as such also has a MC parallel reading síen, Mand. xiǎn. In one Shijing poem (1,III,18,2), however, it is glossed as *shūjʔ, MC chój, Mand. cǔi 'lofty, high' (which is somewhat dubious, because the rhyme seems to be non-labialized). It is also frequently confused with 灑 *srēʔ 'to sprinkle' q.v. - which is obviously a mistake, based on later semantic and phonetic confusion.
