Meanings and usage
noun: palm (bound form, as in 栟櫚/棕櫚 'palm tree')
棕櫚
棕櫚
Bound character with no independent meaning, used only in 栟櫚/棕櫚 ('palm tree', Mandarin reading bīng) and the place name 栟茶 (reading bēn); the single Teochew reading bêng6 is listed under both with no indication which compound it derives from, so the more generally useful palm-tree sense was chosen.
