Two comments:
(a) the reading is やぐるまぎく, not やぐるまきく. Your ref site has it correct, so you must have copied it wrongly. Please take care about this aspect. Try looking words up in Goo (矢車菊 is there.) (b) P L E A S E do not jam the left bracket against the preceding word. It is simply not correct English style, and I am getting tired of correcting it. |

| Comment | From a little web search I gather that "嘉木" means "fine tree," rather than "tea tree." The original Chinese source of this word states that "Tea is a fine tree of the south."
The Japanese reading of this word appears to be 「かぼく」. 「嘉木」is read 「かぎ」when it refers to an area in Niigata Prefecture. |

| Editorial Comment | Yes, I'd rolled 嘉木 in with the 佳木 entry yesterday. Thanks for noticing the 嘉木/かぎ place-name. It's already in ENAMDICT - I didn't check. かぼく is also 花木, which can be confusing. |

"Google hits: "禄をはんで" 1,110k " While I'm not objecting to filling out the senses on this submission I should note that the "1,110k" above is most certainly another example of Google returning spurious numbers. Checking with yahoo.co.jp I got a much more reasonable 98 web page hits. I wont say that yahoo never messes up (I know for a fact that similarly ridiculous numbers can be given) but that sort of glitch is rarer. Basically the moral is to check _two_ search engines any time you find an answer to be surprisingly large. |

| Editorial Comment | I agree. Many of the "1,110k" are from linking pages containing 禄 を はん で. In theory using the "allintext:" progma should stop this, but it fails in Japanese. I have grizzled to a contact in Google Japan about this. |

I did notice that this number was unusually large, but since I had been using Google for years as the primary search engine and had been impressed (perhaps unduly) by its accuracy, I automatically reported the number without much thought. Come to think of it, I have noticed that Google has been returning some unrealistically large numbers on some innocuous phrases, particulary over the last few weeks. Perhaps there are some glitches in the Google search engine. |
