However according to the printed and published book of 'the record of Todai-ji Temple,' it was often written as '媱行,' because the character '媱' has the meaning of walking with one shoulder down, of which then the meaning was changed to 'good looking' or 'dances beautifully' or 'playing,' it can be presumed that Princess Sakahito was a woman who was described as 'she was a big spender and preferred to go to luxurious functions like Mando e or socializing with wealthy friends.'
しかし｢東大寺要録」の版本や刊本には「媱行」と書かれているものが多く、「媱」の字には「肩を曲げて歩くさま」から転じて「見目良い」「美しく舞う」「戯れる」といった意味があるため、むしろ「浪費が激しく、豪華絢爛な交友や、万燈会などの華やかな催しを好んだ女性」とみるのが適切であろう。
