Chen Collection, Upper Volume Radical: Moon (yuè) Kangxi Strokes: 10 Page 505, Entry 13 Pronounced nü. Explanation from Explaining Graphs and Analyzing Characters (Shuowen Jiezi): The appearance of the moon in the east on the first day of the lunar month is called nü. Note: The character nü is written as nu in Explaining Graphs and Analyzing Characters, which is incorrect. It should be placed under the Radical: Meat (ròu). In the Ode to the Moon (Yue Fu) by Xie Zhuang, there is the phrase "nü tiao jing que." The commentary by Li Shan also uses the character nü when citing Explaining Graphs and Analyzing Characters. For further detailed explanations, see the entry for the character nu. Furthermore, explanation from Jade Chapters (Yupian): Suo-nü refers to a constrained or restricted appearance. The History of the Former Han Dynasty (Qian Hanshu), Record of the Five Elements, records: Princes and lords were suo-nü and unable to manage their affairs. Commentary by Zheng states: Suo-nü describes the state of being unable to fulfill one's responsibilities. Textual Research: In the Ode to the Moon (Yue Fu) by Xie Zhuang, the phrase appears as "nü tiao jing que." I have carefully amended the character que to its correct form according to the original text.
