it is actually もじる. I therefore added the じ. |

| Comment | i don't think that 捩る and 捻る warrant (io), or that possibly the (io) should be the other way around. this is the form the kokugo dictionaries use, as well as the form that my ime suggests
and as paul noted in a submission from last year, web hits favor this as well: 捻じる 719 捩じる 382 拗じる 3 捩る 75,300 注意：Can also be read もじる or よじる 捻る 343,000 注意：Can also be read as ひねる i think that 捩る (よじる) might also be a potential merge |

| Comment | I'm in two minds as to whether it needs a separate entry but コメント is often used for "reply written to blog entry".
For example I think a sentence like コメントをありがとう。 would generally be more like Thanks for commenting (on my blog). than Thanks for the comment. |
