| Comment | Err, surely it must be "shear". Look up the definitions on m-w.com.
"Sheer" is used in "sheer force" meaning "utter, unavoidable, brute force". Shearing is the force or a stress caused by differential forces acting upon an object, which is exactly what せん断 refers to. |

So it might be worth having 準恒星状天体 in there somewhere, but 準星 is now highly disrecommended because it looks exactly opposite of what it is. (e.g. 準星 looks like 'standard star') |

Also in the example corpus, from which I took "I dare say" (used in several sentences). Can look it up in more dictionaries if so desired. |
| Comment | This one has been bothering me for a while.
I always use (and encounter) おそらく as a word meaning "Probably", "Likely" or even "Most likely". I think it represents a quite wide array of meanings from "probably" to "most likely". Certainly not just "perhaps"? |
