というもの (exp) something called ..; something like ..; (P) ? I've also added kanji headwords. (と言う物 563,000 hits, と言うもの 2,990,000, というもの 45,900,000) P.S. Should have (uk) but this form only has a "part-of-speech" field and I'm not sure if it goes in a separate category or not.Paul Blay |

| Comment | This popped up on Nep League recently, and the reading がりゅうてんせい was rejected. I can not find the りゅう reading of this word in any of the major dictionaries (広辞苑/大辞林), so I propose to remove that reading.

| Editorial Comment | Kenkyusha 5th ed has がりゅうてんせい which just references がりょうてんせい. The present JMdict/EDICT entry is marked "ik" to show the kana is irregular. I think I'll leave it like that. |
| Headword 1 | 差を付ける |
| Reading 1 | さをつける |
| Part-of-speech | n |
| Comment | 差を付ける 【さをつける】 (exp) to establish a lead; to discriminate
I have no problem with "to establish a lead" as one very obvious meaning, but I believe "to discriminate" needs to be restored to its original, not present pejorative, meaning (racial discrimination, etc.). How about "to ascertain or tell the difference (between)"? Hey, it's one thing to feel the language and quite another to be a lexicographer. Without context, even from Japanese to English, well "I am what I am" (truncated quote from Popeye). |

は confuses things though so it may not be a good idea to make separate entries for them. |
