            1. WL quote the received view that shu3 暑 relates to humidity but fails to realise that the essence of the concept is twofold: firstly it relates always to climatic temperature only; and secondly it refers to perceived temperature. Any burning object is re4 熱, but no one would think of calling it shu3 暑 in classical Chinese.
