| Comment | In the third listed meaning:
(3) Yamato Deshiko Shichihenge (anime, managa title) There are two typos - Yamato Deshiko should be Yamata Nadeshiko (see Reference 1), and managa should be manga. Also, this word has the additional meaning of transformation (see Reference 2); basically, the first definition of 変化 (へんか) in EDICT. |

統括 【とうかつ】 (n,vs) unification; bringing together; generalization; (P) 統轄 【とうかつ】 (n,vs) control; supervision as it is awkward trying to distinguish 統括(とうかつ) administration (substituted kanji) from 統括(とうかつ) unification particularly from an indexing point of view. |

"again, all of these entries without references are coming from that list of kotowaza, and getting run through daijirin (can't be bothered cutting & copying them all)" I hope you're not planning on manually pasting each word into 大辞林, there are quicker ways. I use Firefox with the DictionarySearch extension (日本語版 V1.5) See http://bushwhacker.seesaa.net/category/877845-1.html and direct link http://bushwhacker.up.seesaa.net/Firefox_extention/dictionarysearch-J5-1.5.xpi Just turn your word list into a html file, open in Firefox, and you can right-click any selected word to go to a dictionary link. |
