The kokugos actually have separate entries for the four in a Buddhist context, with 「-生」 read as 「しょう」.
The meanings seem to be mostly the same, but with 「湿生」 related to moisture and 「化生」 as more of a
spontaneous birth (same as gg5).
Also, while the glosses are mostly how gg5 and DDB approach them, scientific terms are strange fits for
religious classifications (the fourth one especially is supernatural). "Hydrarch" is an obscure term that
seems to do with ecological succession. Here's how I would do it, but I don't mind ceding to gg5 if you feel
it's better. |
