Other Meanings

There are other meanings for the word shou. I wanted to create a seperate article, and a disambiguation page, but this together with finding the relevant information is proving to be a headache. However, if you type shou into google images, you get both a chinese symbol, and a picture of a chinese luck god. Dessydes — Preceding undated comment added 16:01, 21 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

First image

The image in the lead section, a comparison between the sheng and sho, shows that the sheng is smaller than the sho, contradictory to the lead section which reads 'although the sho is tends to be smaller in size'. The Average Wikipedian (talk) 07:24, 5 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]
