Gēnzāi (roots and seedlings) (the first character has the fanqie gǔ + hén. The Qieyun says: "A tree root." The Erya says: "Tiāngēn is hù." Guo's commentary says: "The horn star connects below to dǐ, like a tree having roots." The second character has the fanqie zhā + cái. The Shuowen jiezi says: "To plant; formed with the 'wood' radical and an abbreviated zāi phonetic." The Vinaya text writes 栽, which is an unfounded popular form).
