Possibly ううん (sense 2) but no proof (and the usage similarity is not that definite). I don't have any examples for ううん (sense 2) anyway. |

| Headword 1 | 準惑星 |
| Reading 1 | じゅんわくせい |
| Part-of-speech | n |

| Reference | Wikipedia (as always, but from a well-sourced article):
http://ja.wikipedia.org/wiki/%E6%BA%96%E6%83%91%E6%98%9F |
| Comment | The term 矮惑星 is listed in EDICT, but the term 準惑星 is used quite often in context of the recent demotion of Pluto to dwarf planet status.
A search for 準惑星 results mainly in news and reports on the reclassification of Pluto to "Dwarf planet" along with Ceres and Eris. It seems to be the term agreed upon for those three celestial bodies these days. If I understand correctly, this term is only used for Pluto, Ceres and Eris, that is, quasi-planets in our solar system. |
