<< review queue entry 84922 >> Grain stalk --------------------- Editor: The comment section is for explaining the basis for a proposed change, not simply restating the wording you want inserted. As far as I can tell, 禾 does not mean "grain stalk". In both modern and classical usage, 禾 denotes a grain plant (cereal crop) as a whole, not specifically the stalk. For example: > 稻禾 refers to the rice plant, not just its stalk. Ex. 一如扎根台灣土地、汲取養分,生生不息的台東池上稻禾 > 禾苗 means a young grain seedling; again 禾 here refers to the plant: 像看到田地乾旱禾苗萎頓的農夫 -- "like a farmer watching his fields dry out and his seedlings wither." |
