Mao Collection, Upper Volume Radical: Heart (xīn) Character: ge Kangxi stroke count: 13 Page 393, Entry 33 Pronounced ge. Equivalent to the character ge (meaning to change or correct). According to Explaining Graphs and Analyzing Characters (Shuowen Jiezi), it is formed from the speech radical; however, some versions form it from the heart radical. It means to decorate or refine. Another interpretation is to be cautious, or to change. In the Rites Theory chapter of the Xunzi (Xunzi), it is written as ge gui. The commentary notes this refers to the changes in expression when one is moved. It is also pronounced ke, with the same meaning.
