鏡像 [jing xiang]—Mirror Image — [Analogy (譬喻 [pi yu])] Appears to exist but does not truly exist, like an image in a mirror. It is one of the ten analogies in the Prajñāpāramitā Sūtras (般若經 [ban ruo jing]). Chapter Six of the Mahāprajñāpāramitā Upadeśa Śāstra (智度論 [zhi du lun]) states: "Like a mirror image, it is truly empty, neither arising nor ceasing, yet it deludes people's eyes. All phenomena (諸法 [zhu fa]) are likewise. They are empty, not real, neither arising nor ceasing, and they delude the eyes of ordinary people. (Omission in the middle) All phenomena arise from causes and conditions and are without inherent nature (自性 [zi xing]), like an image in a mirror."
鏡像—【譬喻】見有而無有，譬之鏡中之影像。般若經十喻之一。智度論六曰：「如鏡像，實空不生不滅，誑惑人眼。一切諸法，亦復如是。空不實不生不滅，誑惑凡夫人眼。（中略）諸法因緣生無自性，如鏡中像。」

頸項 [jǐng xiàng] [jing xiang]—
"頸 [jing] (jǐng)" refers to the front of the neck (頭頸的前面 [tou jing de qian mian]); "項 [xiang] (xiàng)" refers to the back of the neck (頭頸的後面 [tou jing de hou mian]). "(jǐngxiàng)" is the neck (脖子 [bo zi]). In Chapter Two (第二回 [di er hui]) of The Travels of Lao Can, Part Two (《老殘遊記二編 [lao can you ji er bian]》), it states: "Although her face (面貌 [mian mao]) could not be seen from behind (後面 [hou mian]), that snow-white (雪白 [xue bai]) neck was very clearly visible (顯豁 [xian huo])."
頸項：頸，頭頸的前面；項，頭頸的後面。頸項即脖子。《老殘遊記二編》第二回：「後面雖看不見面貌，那個雪白的頸項，卻是很顯豁的。」
jǐng xiàng: jǐng, tóu jǐng de qián miàn； xiàng, tóu jǐng de hòu miàn. jǐng xiàng jí bó zi. < lǎo cán yóu jì èr biān> dì èr huí: “hòu miàn suī kàn bù jiàn miàn mào, nà gè xuě bái de jǐng xiàng, què shì hěn xiǎn huō de.”
jing xiang: jing, tou jing de qian mian; xiang, tou jing de hou mian. jing xiang ji bo zi. < lao can you ji er bian> di er hui: "hou mian sui kan bu jian mian mao, na ge xue bai de jing xiang, que shi hen xian huo de."

景象 [jǐng xiàng] [jing xiang]—
1. Sign, indication. From "Book of Han" (漢書 [han shu]), Volume 6, "Annals of Emperor Wu" (武帝紀 [wu di ji]): "Encountering the bestowal of Heaven and Earth (天地況施 [tian de kuang shi]), [one] clearly sees signs, and subtly as if something is heard (屑然如有聞 [xie ran ru you wen])."
2. Situation, phenomenon. From "A Brief History of Civilization" (文明小史 [wen ming xiao shi]), Chapter 13: "Furthermore, the missionary (教士 [jiao shi]) who wanted to see the Viceroy (制臺 [zhi tai]) knew that the Viceroy (制臺 [zhi tai]) treated foreigners (遠人 [yuan ren]) favorably, and had ordered the Foreign Affairs Bureau (洋務局 [yang wu ju]) to prepare everything. Compared to when he was in Hunan (湖南 [hu nan]) where officials (官 [guan]) and common people (民 [min]) were estranged (隔閡 [ge ai]) and Chinese (華 [hua]) and foreigners (洋 [yang]) were at odds (齟齬 [ju yu]), this was unexpectedly a completely different situation, and he was very happy in his heart." Also written as "jǐng zhuàng" (景狀 [jing zhuang]) or "jǐng er" (景兒 [jing er]).
3. Scenery. From Tang (唐 [tang]) Dynasty poet Zheng Gu's (鄭谷 [zheng gu]) poem "Middle Age" (中年 [zhong nian]): "Hazy Qin clouds (秦雲 [qin yun]), faint sky (澹澹天 [dan dan tian]); the New Year's scene (新年 [xin nian]) enters middle age (中年 [zhong nian])." From "Dream of the Red Chamber" (紅樓夢 [hong lou meng]), Chapter 81: "Soon he walked to Qin Fang Pavilion (沁芳亭 [qin fang ting]), only to see a desolate scene (蕭疏 [xiao shu]), with people gone and rooms empty (人去房空 [ren qu fang kong])."
景象：1.跡象。《漢書．卷六．武帝紀》：「遭天地況施，著見景象，屑然如有聞。」
2.情形、現象。《文明小史》第一三回：「再說要見制臺的教士，曉得制臺優待遠人，一切俱飭洋務局預備，較之在湖南時官民隔閡，華洋齟齬，竟另是一番景象，心中甚是高興。」也作「景狀」、「景兒」。
3.景色。唐．鄭谷〈中年〉詩：「漠漠秦雲澹澹天，新年景象入中年。」《紅樓夢》第八一回：「一時走到沁芳亭，但見蕭疏景象，人去房空。」
