| Headword 1 | デジタル |
| Headword 2 | ディジタル |
| Part-of-speech | n |
| English 1 | digital |
| Comment | No need for {comp} I think. How many {comp} entries are there? I wouldn't mind running through them marking them as "obviously {comp}", "unsure", "common word, no tag necessary".
Also, both ディジタル and デジタル are marked (P), but デジタル seems to be the "correct" way of writing it. How does WWWJDIC deal with cases like this? Is there a way to notify a user that a certain spelling is incorrect, regardless of (P)? Alternatively would dropping (P) regardless of Googits for misspelled words be an option to consider? I don't object to carrying common misspellings, but shouldn't they be marked as such? |

| Editorial Comment | OK, I've dropped the P from ディジタル. There are 12421 entries with {comp}. If you want to run through them, grab edict2.gz from http://www.csse.monash.edu.au/~jwb/ and grep out those ones. |

プレハブ（ｐｒｅ＝前に） 前項のｐｒｏがいろいろ意味が含まれているのに対し、このｐｒｅは時間的、空間的に「の前に」を表す。反対語はｐｏｓｔ。 プレハブはｐｒｅｆａｂｒｉｃａｔｅｄ ｈｏｕｓｅの略で英語でも使われる。あらかじめ工場で造られた部品材料を使って、現場で組み立てをする家のことで、「簡易住宅」を指す。 http://quizlet.com/set/139097/ kan'ijūtaku (簡易住宅) a prefab, a prefabricated house http://groups.yahoo.co.jp/group/translatorje/messages/235?threaded=1&expand=1 簡易住宅→prefabricated house (プレハブ) |
