| Comment | OK, Now I'm upset! Please look at the following:
1) 相対 【あいたい】 (n,vs) confrontation; facing; between ourselves; no third party; tete-a-tete; (P) 2) 相対 【そうたい】 (n,vs) relative You will note, first of all, that both are the same except for the readings and the ascribed meanings. What upsets me is that #2 which means "relative" is the one WITHOUT the P marker. Actually I think both deserve them and I am fully prepared to generate heaps of words with the そうたい component. Viva La Einstein! |

| Comment | This definitions given stray from what I always call "the core etymological meaning" which in this case is "fail to hit" such that I have heard this used in conjunction with a "kabu-shiki gaisha" that I solely owned in Kansai. The stock was held by me and hence said to be "fu-atari". You will note that none of the above "spurious" renderings make sense here. As a rule, then, Always Trust the Latin and Greek root words in English or in Japanese the Kanji components. |

| Editorial Comment |
The major dictionaries bomb out on this, apart from 広辞宛, which has:
興行物などが、人気を呼ばず不入りなこと。 時流にうまく乗らないこと。はやらないこと。 That seems to back up the current JMdict/EDICT gloss. BTW, I am VERY cautious about glossing a word on the basis of the "core meanings" of the kanji. I'd end up saying that 魂柱 was a post supporting a soul. |

| Comment | Just a bit of nuance, but sounds more natural to me that the existing "old enemy" entry for 宿敵. This translation has already been accepted by the publisher, a subsidiary of Shogakugan Publishing. |

| Comment | I really don't like this ばがいとりひき kana reading. It should be じょうがい.... and not ばがい in the interest of consistency and to be in agreement with other dictionaries that I have consulted. If one does prefer the ばがい reading, then let's have it reflected in 場 【ば】 (n) (1) place; (2) field (physics); (P) So That there would be both readings listed, i.e. ば and じょう as in, for example, 一場 【いちじょう】 (n) one time (place). |
