(headw1) 杏仁
(kana1) きょうにん
(pos1) n
(comment) I am writing to suggest a modification to the listed reading for this word, 杏仁. Being rather fond of Kit Kat bars, my attention was drawn to this dictionary entry through the recent release of the 杏仁デザート variety of the popular candy bar here in Japan. All of my Japanese associates read the word as あんにん and had never heard of the reading displayed on the site, きょうにん. The latter reading was also quite cumbersome to produce through the automatic hiragana to kanji rendering when typing on Windows computers with Japanese input. However, あんにん converted to 杏仁 instantly. While I personally do not have the breadth of knowledge to suggest that the きょうにん reading is a mistake or is never used, I would like to at least submit for your consideration the inclusion of the seemingly more common あんにん reading in your online dictionary.
I am a big fan of your site and use it almost every day, and I really believe it to be one of the things that makes the internet worthwhile. Thanks for maintaining a great site!
