摘要: 先秦时期即已出现的“菌”字至今仍被广泛使用。该字在先秦文献中多次出现,其义项不囿于菌类一种。《墨子》的《迎敌祠》和《旗帜》篇皆含“菌”字,注家对其含义、字形和在句中的位置意见不一。文章通过梳理注家的意见和先秦用例并结合语境,认为《迎敌祠》篇中“客菌”和“涂菌”之“菌”当释为翳蔽之意;前一“菌”字非“圉”之误,而后一“菌”字亦非“固”之误,且应与“涂”字断开,置于下文“令”字之后并与之连用。《旗帜》篇中“菌旗”之“菌”非“茜”之误,而应释为食用菌类。

Abstract: The Chinese character “jun” which apeared in Pre-Qin period is still in wide use today. “Jun” appears in Pre-Qin literature for several times, and its meanings are not limited to fungi. The chapters Preparations for Wars and Flags of Mozi both contain the character “jun”, but later annotators of the text held divergent views on the meaning, pattern, and textual position of the character. By means of referring to annotators' comments and Pre-Qin usage of the character,combined with textual context, we found that the term “jun” in “kejun” and “tujun” in Preparations for Wars means shelter. The former “jun” is not the wrong character for “yu”,while the latter one is not the wrong character for “gu”. And the latter “jun” should be separated from “tu”, and then put behind the following character “ling”,constituting the term “lingjun”. The “jun” in the term “junqi” in Flags is not the wrong character for “qian”; it should be understood as edible fungi.

Key words: Mozi, jun, Preparations for Wars, Flags, Pre-Qin period
