| Headword 1 | 輪っぱ |
| Headword 2 | ワッパ |
| Reading 1 | わっぱ |
| Part-of-speech | n |
| English 1 | 1: (Slang) circular obento box; 2: ring-shaped |
| English 2 | 1: handcuffs; 2: to handcuff (with the verb はめる or かける) |
| Reference | Doing a quick search on Google for ワッパ or 輪っぱ with the verbs はめる or かける should net sufficent hits to verify the validity of the word. Please note that the katakana usage seems to be more common than the kanji/hiragana.

| Comment | This was originally suggestion as a revision in 2007 by Paul Blay, but it was declined claiming it was "to marginal" to add. This isn't true. It's true that輪っぱをかける doesn't net many hits on google, but that really shouldn't be a cause the decline a submission. 輪っぱ is often written in katakana like ワッパ and can also take the verb はめる. I've heard it used on a number of occasions in Japanese criminal series and it seems to be quite a frequently used word for handcuffs and with the verb はめる or かける an expression that means "to handcuff" |

Well, to quote the dialogue then:
PB: May also be used as slang for handcuffs (31 hits for ワッパをかける that fit that usage). That's pretty marginal though. JB: Yes, probably too marginal to add. That's not exactly a suggestion or rejection. |

読み損なう should be the first headword instead of 読み損う as per Google. Although, in this case you might want to consider just dropping 読み損う as a headword, none of the other 〜〜損なう compound verbs do. |

| Comment | > Googits comparison between 読み損なう and 読み損う.
> (respectively 100.000s versus 1000s) There are not 1000s of hits for 読み損う. If you look at actual number of non-duplicate pages returned for +"読み損う" there are only 44. Similarly there are not 100,000s for 読み損なう +"読み損なう" 206 'real' Google hits The 読み損なう entry as a whole is thus only of very marginal utility, but if it is to be kept then 1:4 is a better reason for keeping 読み損う then 1:1000 would have been. |
