         DefinitionShort: a grain somewhat similar to wheat, but regarded as less desirable for food

         Glosses: barley

         Comments: In a number of languages there is no specific term for barley, and therefore it may be useful simply to borrow a term from a dominant language. In certain instances, however, translators have used an expression such as ‘wheat-like grain.’ It may even be useful to have a footnote to explain something of the nature of barley, but the fact that it was cheaper than wheat is clear from {S:06600600600034}.
