-<WL>陆(F陸) [lù] land; 大陆 continent  [liù] six ( = 六)
+<WL>陆(F陸) [lù] 陆地 dry land; 大陆 continent  [liù] (大写) 六 six@@; 双陆 a game; cf. 陸
-Originally written 坴, from 圥 lù phonetic over 土 (tǔ) ‘earth’. Later 阝(阜 fù) ‘hill’ was added. In the simple form, 坴 was reduced to 击. The element 坴 also occurs in 睦 mù ‘friendly’; don’t confuse 陸 with 陵 líng.
+The Shuōwén Seal form of 陆(􂢩陸) lù ‘(high/level) dry land’ combines 阝(􂢢𨸏阜) fù ‘hill’, and 坴(􂘴) lù ‘big clods (of earth)’ (phonosemantic); an old variant form 𠃈(􂢪) has 𠒶(􀄇𡴫𡴪) on the right, tripling 圥(􀄆𡴆) lù ‘mushroom’; cf. 坴.
-	陆(陸) is sometimes used for 六 liù ‘six’ in financial documents to discourage alteration.
+	Note: In the simple form, the right-side component 坴 is reduced to a shape like 击.
+	Note: 陆(陸) sometimes serves as the “大写” elaborate form of 六 liù ‘six’, used in financial ledgers to discourage alteration.
+	Compare: 睦 mù ‘friendly’; 陵 líng ‘hill/mound’.
