when i submitted コンタミネーション and x-reffed it to this, i was thinking of it in the wikipedia sense, and assumed that was an alternate sense of this word. anyway, new kanji headwords from kojien as well |

| Comment | I'm not sure if this could be classed as an irregular kanji for 知る. I had trouble finding it in any dictionaries (online or paper), but it gets 130,000 hits on google, so not really rare. While a lot of places seem to use it as a synonym for 知る, in the novel I'm reading now it seems to be used in place of 知る to emphasize the fact that the knowledge was gained through personal experience. I'm not sure if these kinds of details are intended for the WWWJDIC? It could just be an iK for 知る. On a related note, the kanji entry for 識 seems to be missing the しる reading, which does appear in all of my paper dictionaries (and in the unihan database) except for the Kodansha kanji dict. |

| Comment | I would suggest that the two different kanji's are put into separate entries. As the reference says, 例え is a noun meaning "an example", and 仮令 is an adverb meaning "even if/although". My paper dictionaries also agree that they are different words, although it appears to be a common mistake. |

Possibly, but as an _abbreviation_ it, and モニ, are much more likely to be specific in meaning than the word it was derived from. Unfortunately web searches on カウ/モニ alone return far too many false positives to be of any use. |
