Meanings and usage

noun: imperial decree, edict
敕

Character has several distinct literary/historical senses (verb 'to command/admonish', historical noun 'imperial decree', a Taoist talismanic-command sense, and a surname) and the page does not clearly disambiguate which sense pairs with the single Teochew reading têg4; the historical noun sense was chosen as most notable.
