於是裴、顏師古、李賢、何超、董沖諸儒，訓詁音釋，然後制度、名物、方言、奇字，可以一覽而周知。 Scholars such as Pei Yin, Yan Shigu, Li Xian, He Chao, and Dong Chong then supplied phonetic and exegetical notes, making it possible to survey institutions, material objects, regional speech, and obscure characters in a single reading and understand them completely.
