The original meaning of glume is the end of the ear of grain, which means sharp and arrow. Epiphysis is also a simplified character of some Chinese characters. Epiphytes are typical pictophonetic characters, with crops on the left and people on the right. The ancients thought that the top of mature rice was as sharp as the top of human head, so the word epiphysis was extended to the end of the tip. The epiphysis also extends to the end of an arrow and further extends to an arrow.
In ancient times, people often used epiphysis to describe human intelligence. For example, in Romance of the Three Kingdoms, Liu Bei once praised Zhuge Liang: Shu Yue:' Xu Yuanzhi (Xu Shu) of Yingchuan is also from Yang Guo. Yong Yang came hundreds of miles here, which means he can be a special envoy. "The epiphysis here means wisdom.
In modern Chinese, the usage of epiphysis is not very common, but when it is used as a single word, it still retains the meaning of tip and end. Epiphysis is also commonly used in some fixed phrases, such as the novel epiphysis.
