Current Entry術後 [じゅつご] /(adj-no,n-adv,n-t) postoperative/(P)/ (1620630)
Headword 1術後
Reading 1じゅつご
Part-of-speechadj-no,n-adv,n-t
English 1postoperative
CommentAlthough I made up this term on my own, it turns out that (only) ALC recognizes it BUT dedicates two pages to examples of its usage. 術前 (じゅつぜん) = preop; preoperative (preparation, diagnosis, etc.). Could be a worthy addition for someone whose ambition includes filling out the laborious (sorry) "new addition" form.

Editorial Comment 術後/じゅつぜん is in GG5, Kodansha GJD & Daijirin, just for starters. I can't see why typing or pasting the words above into the new entry form is any more laborious than putting them into the comment box.

Editorial Comment 凄い -> 凄く is normal adjective-adverb creation. Is an entry needed for 凄く?
if you think the 凄くない entry is incorrect, make an amendment.
