(subtype)	new
(headw1)	熱り
(kana1)	ほとぼり
(pos)	n
(english1)	commotion
(english2)	excitement
(reference)	Present in GG5 and 大辞林.
(comment)	This needs a "usually kana" tag - Google has about 73,000 hits for ほとぼり, compared with just 2,700 for 熱り, and it's impossible to know how many of the latter figure are actually ほとぼり rather than いきり, ほてり, etc.

(subtype)	new
(headw1)	前広
(kana1)	まえびろ
(pos)	adverb
(english1)	previous, beforehand
(reference)	Word verified in 広辞苑, which gives it as synonymous with 以前 and 前方.
Encountered in the sentence "客先への通知は前広にお願いします" from a colleague, which is what leads me to "beforehand" as a translation.
(name)	Michael Poole
