Etymology
From Middle Chinese 簫／箫 (sew, “xiao (Chinese flute)”).
Usage notes
Synonymous with the longer phrase 簫の笛 (shō no fue, literally “shō flute”).[1] However, given the rarity of this kanji in writing, and the large number of possible single-kanji terms pronounced as shō in Japanese, this longer term that specifies 笛 (“flute”) is used to clarify and disambiguate.
