(subtype) amend
(headw1) 住宅

(comment) Is definition "resident; housing" a mistake for "residence; housing"? Example sentences and my dictionary don't support "resident."

(subtype) amend
(headw1) 社会人
(kana1) しゃかいじん
(pos) noun
(english1) upstanding member of society, office worker
(reference) Excerpts from email:
たかえ: 私は24歳の社会人です。
(this didn't make much sense to me... hence my question)
ラヤン: 社会人ですか?あれはいい人ですか?
たかえ: 社会人はOffice workerの事です
(comment) This amendment is to add the meaning "office worker" to this entry.
This meaning makes since when examining the kanji used (office-join-person), but with just looking at the word in the dictionary without knowing the kanji, you wouldn't know that. :)
