Shen Collection, Upper Volume Radical: Grass (cǎo) 蘪 Kangxi strokes: 23 Page 1070, Entry 06 Tang Rhyme dictionary: Pronounced mei. Shuowen Jiezi dictionary: The plant species known as miwu. Erya: Notes on Grass: Qizhi and miwu. Commentary: The sprouts of the plants known as xiongqiong. Another name for it is weiwu. Guanzi: Earth Personnel chapter: The five scents grow in groups; lotus and miwu, gaoben and baizhi. Zuo Si: Rhapsody on the Capital of Shu: Miwu spreads out across the middle of the slope. Treatise on Curiosities: Among things that are similar and cause confusion, shechuang is often mistaken for miwu. Erya: Notes on Grass: Mi grows from water. Subcommentary: Grass that grows from water is called mi. Yangzi: Regional Dialects: Mi means none. Commentary: This refers to the overgrowth of weeds. Yunhui dictionary: Pronounced mi. The meaning is the same. Note: Regarding the character for miwu, the Shuowen Jiezi dictionary writes it with the grass radical and the phonetic mi. The Songs of Chu (Chuci) writes it as mi, and the Rhapsody by Sima Xiangru writes it as a variant form; these different forms appear mixed and cannot be unified. However, examination of the Erya and the Shuowen Jiezi shows they use the form mi. The Five Classics Characters dictionary includes the form mi but does not include the form mi. It is appropriate to follow the classic texts as the standard.
