A reed—referring to the tall, slender, jointed stems of grasses that grow in wet areas—used literally for the plant and figuratively for objects made from such stems, such as rods, staffs, measuring sticks, and writing tools. Also refers to a measuring rod or standard of length, a stalk, or shaft of implements, and, by extension, can describe a part of the body (radius of the arm, limb, or bone) or structural/supportive elements (beam, shaft). In certain contexts, it denotes aromatic or valuable plants, such as calamus.
