| Reading 1 | ふくしゅう |
| Part-of-speech | n,vs |
| English 1 | review |
| English 2 | revision |
| Comment | One thing that I do is "link" -- as easily confused homophones -- two or more P word entries, ie 復讐(P); 復しゅう; 復讎 【ふくしゅう】 (n,vs) revenge ---- with 復習.
My feeling is that I need not do so for a P word and a non-P,low-frequency word. I remember with embarrassment in the early days confusing the two "jishin" in a conversation. Fortunately the college students at the gesshuku were most forgiving and told me the difference. Anyway, just a suggestion - that is not hard to implement. |

| Editorial Comment | I'm not sure drawing attention to homophones is such a good idea in a dictionary. OK in teaching guides, etc. Any other views on this? |
| Current Entry | 詩的破格 [してきはかく] /(n) poetic license/ (2046430) |
| Headword 1 | 詩的破格 |
| Reading 1 | してきはかく |
| Part-of-speech | n |
| English 1 | poetic license |
| Comment | Although I think 詩的破格 is quite a good choice, it is also a bit Eng-Jpn chokuyaku; such that I can see an argument made for 詩的許容, which I prefer because of the inherent feeling of "toleration" in the permission granted. Disagreement with this suggestion is welcomed. |

| Editorial Comment | I'll go along with it. 詩的破格 is in GG5, but it only gets 6 Googits. 詩的破格 gets many more, including some containing "poetic license" as well. |

| Comment | Not Yahoo, Goo or Space/ALC approve of 詩的破格, though Yahoo and ALC like 詩的許容. I think the 詩的破格 entry should be dropped, especially because it sounds so eigo-kusai. But that's just an opinion from someone whose "literature vocabulary" is anemic, at best. |

| Headword 1 | 様みろ |
| Reading 1 | ざまみろ |
| Part-of-speech | exp |
| English 1 | You'll get what you deserve! |
| Comment | 1) I have only heard this used after the fact - to mean, "See, you got what you deserved" in kind of an "I told you so fashion".
2) Question: Why is the expression not written 様見ろ as in the entry 様を見ろ, which I have never heard. Note: Since I learned many of these expressions "on the fly" and not via a dictionary, I cannot speak with certainty; it's just that 様見ろ seems more like what is burned into my mind. |

| Editorial Comment | According to WWW hits, 様見ろ is marginally more common. I'm aligning the meaning with 様を見ろ and cross-referencing. |
