| Part-of-speech | adv |
| Part-of-speech | adj-no |
| Part-of-speech | adj-na |
| English 1 | so-so, adequate, passable, tolerable |
| Reference | 広辞苑 |
| Comment | The current definition as "tolerable" is inadequate and perhaps misleading. Also, use with の is more common than use with な--by two orders of magnitude. |

| Editorial Comment | Ref? It gets about 200 Googits, with quite a few false ones in that. Appears in "よういさ、よう. いさ、よういさな". I'll drop it until someone can provide better confirmation of the meaning. If it goes in it will be "obsc". |

| Headword 1 | 速乾性 |
| Reading 1 | そっかんせい |
| Part-of-speech | n |
| English 1 | quick drying |
| Reference | The meaning is pretty much clear from just looking at the kanji, but for a formal reference; ALC carries several sentences with 速乾.
Reading confirmed by the Anthy IME. |
| Comment | Found on the packaging of a velt-tip permanent marker, alongside 耐水性. |

| Editorial Comment | "adj-no". 速乾性 is really the property itself. 速乾 can be used adjectivally. |

| English 1 | pre-eminence |
| English 2 | outstanding |
| English 3 | excellent |
| Reference | Two English meanings added. "Outstanding" based on the kanji and the context where I ran into the word, and confirmed with ALC's sentences.
"Excellent" based on the Tanaka corpus example sentences. |
| Comment | Again, my newly bought velt-tip pen's packaging, which for a mere 99 Yen is outstanding because it is both water resistant and quick-drying.
...At least according to the packaging. |
