Shuowen:火部》然:烧也。从火肰声。
Guangyun:广韵·下平声··》然:语助又如也,是也。《说文》曰:烧也,俗作燃又姓左传楚有然丹何氏姓苑云今苍梧人。如延切,九。
Kangxi:康熙字典·火部·》然:〔古文〕𤓉《唐韵》《集韵》《类篇》《韵会》《正韵》𠀤如延切,音䔳。《说文》烧也。《注》徐铉曰俗作燃。盖后人增加。《孟子》若火之始然。《管子·弟子职》蒸闲容蒸,然者处下。《文刘绩曰》古者,束薪蒸以爲烛。蒸,细薪也。稍宽其束,使其蒸闲可各容一蒸,以通火气。又使已然者居下,未然者居上,则火易然也。《集韵》通作䕼。又《玉篇》许也,如是也。譍言也。《史记·张耳陈馀传》此固赵国立名义不侵爲然诺者也。又《广韵》语助。《礼·檀弓》岁旱,穆公召县子而问然。《注》然之言焉也。又《广韵》如也。《·邶风》惠然肯来。《礼·檀弓》贸贸然来。又承上接下语。《礼·曲礼》然后客坐。又《檀弓》然则盍行乎。《文王世子》然而衆知父子之道矣。又《礼·祭义》国人称愿,然曰:幸哉有子如此。《注》然犹而也。又果然,兽名。《周礼·春官·巾车》然。𧜀髤饰。《注》然,果然也。◎按埤雅作𤡮。详犬部𤡮字注。又率然,蛇名。《孙子·九地篇》率然者,常山之蛇也。击其首,则尾至。击其尾,则首至。击其中,则首尾俱至。又连然,县名。《前汉·地理志》益州郡连然有盐官。又燕然,山名。《前汉·匈奴传》至速邪乌燕然山。又姓。《左传》楚然丹。郑然明。又叶而邻切,音人。《刘向·列女赞》齐女傅母,防女未然,庄姜亦材,卒能修身。《马融·东巡颂》散齐卽毕,越翼良辰,棫槱增积,烈火燔然。
考证:〔《管子·弟子职》蒸闲容蒸,然者处下。《赵用贤曰》古者,束薪蒸以爲烛。蒸,细薪也。稍宽其束,使其蒸闲可各容一蒸,以通火气。又使已然者居上,未然者居下,则火易然也。〕谨按管子卷首有按字者,皆刘绩语,非赵用贤语。谨据凡例将赵用贤曰四字改爲文刘绩曰。按又已然者居上二句系释然者居下之义,盖火性炎上故使已然者居下,未然者居上,则火易然也。谨按文义将已然句上字改爲下字。未然句下字改爲上字。
Fanqie:如延 (《广韵·下平声··》)
Unihan definition:yes, certainly; pledge, promise
