| Headword 1 | 一を聞いて十を知る |
| Reading 1 | いちをきいてじゅうをしる |
| Part-of-speech | n |
| Reference | http://eawc.evansville.edu/anthology/analects.htm
the actual quote from the analects appears to be: The Master said to Tsze-kung, "Which do you consider superior, yourself or Hui?" Tsze-kung replied, "How dare I compare myself with Hui? Hui hears one point and knows all about a subject; I hear one point, and know a second." The Master said, "You are not equal to him. I grant you, you are not equal to him." which matches what the kokugo dictionaries have: "to understand everything from only one part" "to be perceptive" |

| Comment | are we sure that "poral" is english? it's not in any dictionary i checked, and wikipedia doesn't have it either.
