English term or phrase: morning glory
morning glory is a flower. term is also used to describe an erection upon wakening. i believe zao = morning. is there a Chinese word beginning with p to describe the glory as in the flower or the other meaning " something to be proud of ( glory in ) in the morning " I am looking for something which fits the two letters PZ. Thanks
