「平人」

The NINJAL edition directly gives yayan sisam for an ordinary Wajin, with a boat-ownership example. Both corpus hits come from that same dictionary. This supports the expression and sense, but ヤヽ lacks an explicit n and シシヤモ ends in o. Yaya sisam and yayan sisamo preserve one or the other feature as tentative alternatives. These unresolved correspondences limit confidence in the exact pronunciation represented by this witness.
