| Comment | The distinction between (1) and (2) looks a little blurry to me.
Given that (1) includes 'spot' and 'mark' I assume that the mark in question is a physical one not a numerical one. |

| Comment | After a night's sleep (not that I got much) I'm having another go a this. The sense given first in 大辞林 with the example 〜とした腕 appears to be much less frequent. In fact I was unable to find an example that was clearly talking about physical narrowness. As such I have re-ordered the senses.
I was able to find examples of the (now) sense (2) so I added that. |
