| comment | CLICS-3. mugi is a cover term both encompassing wheat, barley, rye and oats. komugi specifically refers to wheat only. ōmugi specifically refers to barley only. raimugi specifically refers to rye only. ōtomugi or enbaku specifically refer to oats only. Probably borrowed from Middle Chinese mwók (麥) 'wheat' (Mandarin Chinese mài, mò) | |
