| Headword 1 | 表日本 |
| Reading 1 | おもてにほん |
| Part-of-speech | n |

| Comment | I suggest changing this from vulg to sens (sensitive?) since 裏日本 is marked similarly.
I understand that only the "ura" word is actually objected to. |

| Headword 1 | 基盤 |
| Reading 1 | きばん |
| Part-of-speech | n |
| Comment | 基盤 【きばん】 (n) (1) foundation; basis; (2) infrastructure
I have a problem with the "infrastructure" rendering, which may indeed be accurate in context or as an ellipsis. 社会基盤 is rendered as "infrastructure" by ALC but I don't like that one either, since it's abstract and infrastructure for me is both the concrete (roads, subways, telephone as well as the ideas that make it all possible) and the abstract. Lest we go with gairaigo (インフラ), all I can find for infrastructure is explanatory as per 構造基盤. |

I have a problem with "clock stand". It sounds like Edict spent some time in that "smoke-filled room" of chokuyaku-sha. Your thoughts, fearless leader. BTW, I love to make puns in Japanese, my recent favorite being "yakusha baka". |

| Headword 1 | 織り込む |

| Part-of-speech | n |
| Comment | 織り込む 【おりこむ】 (v5m,vt) to be incorporated in
Don't really like this one as it is a conclusion of the imagery, which is "woven" or "woven into/throughout". How I love the imagery of kanji. 織物 【おりもの】 (n) textile; fabric, which interestingly enough I did not find when I queried 織り. Oh, yes, I know that the hirakana is not included in 織物. While I'm charging windmills, how come (織り(P); 織 【おり】 (n) weave; weaving; woven item) 織り gets a P? Think I might need some context before I blurt that one out as a stand-alone. |
