| Comment | The マス is _not_ from 'mass' (kg etc.) it is from the Japanese word
升(P); 枡; 桝; 斗 【ます】 (n) (1) measure; unit of volume (1.8l); (2) square container, e.g., a box; (3) square on a grid; cell of a grid; (P) and thus should be romanized as 'masu', or better translated as 'square', in the gloss. Edict is a dictionary not an encyclopedia so I really think that a more concise explanation is needed. There are hits for 百升計算 and 百枡計算, but only a few hundred between them, so they can probably be omitted. |
