(comment)	"Parry" and "sidestep" are the only senses given in GG5, implying they're commoner than the "let go" and "chase away" meanings already in JMDict.
Daijirin gives a second headword "去なす"; there are only a few hundred google hits for this spelling, though, so it's probably not common enough to be worth adding.

(comment)	I've had problems with buying things at the supaa that are not what I thought they were.  I was pretty sure the bag that said meekuin had potatoes in it, but past experiences made me unsure.  So glad they were potatoes.
