Is there a Bonsai Terms glossary anyone knows about?

[Ariadne]

I'm new at this and am avidly reading the threads and trying to learn. I often come across terms such as "Shari" and have no clue what they mean. I've begun to compile a glossary of my own, but have to search quite a bit to find the meaning of a term. Can anyone help (starting with the meaning of 'Shari')? Thanks so much.

Check to see the bonsai wiki tab above, I am guilty of not checking to see what it has available, but it's also for us to build I guess.

Owen Reich (apprenticing in Japan under Keiichi Fujikawa) recently started a blog, and this post covers a lot of the common terms too...with a nice touch of humor: http://bonsaiunearthed.com/blog/

Thx Dario. A wealth of information. I've a lot to chew on there.

Lovely, informative blog, Brian. BTW, I've been to Nanzenji, so it was so nice to see the "hidden" areas behind it shown in the blog. Thanks so much.
