Five grains (五穀: [穀 is] *k(uwng)* + *m(uwk)* in fanqie. The five grains are broomcorn millet, foxtail millet, hemp, wheat, and pulses, as explained in detail in the Liji shu. The Jindai qianshu says: 'First is spiked millet, second is foxtail millet, third is hemp, fourth is wheat, fifth is beans; these are the five grains.')
