bashou dream kanji

 

夢

the eye, there in the grasses, and under the earth, night, as if a dark field

when in a one moment, a change

夣

 

and then only the sound of the wind through the trees ...

 

梦

幻 朧 闇 鬱 欝

穸

   

 

  

 

jisho HO - is a fire starting ?

As fine a kanji tool as jisho.org is, it does have subtle flaws.  Take

火

カ /  ひ· -び· ほ-
\u706B
Henshall 8

火星     かせい     Mars (planet)

火        ひ     fire; flame; blaze

口火        くちび     fuse; spark plug; cause (of war); origin (of a quarrel)

BUT - no common word begins ほ- and has a kanji that starts with FIRE.

And some few uncommon words ( e.g., for tongs (i.e., the tool) ) begin KO !

It is enough to KAuse you Hee-Bee-JI-bee's ... or did I miss one in the 15 pages of 377 words beginning with ほ ?  But I only want to see jukugo !

So there is a place for smart app's that use kanjidic2 or jmdict ...

ON-yomi SEKI and SHAKU
