| Comment | Judging from usage, 初優勝 doesn't seem to be limited to sumo at all. It's listed as a sumo term in a number of dictionaries, but the actual intended meaning of the word in most cases doesn't seem to reflect that. I suspect that sumo still may be the origin of the word, so I've turned the (sumo) tag into an (esp. sumo) tag. |

Well I would say that my entry is only used with お and the Eijiro entry is only しるし with お added. Possibly something like the above would be appropriate. |
