| Comment | It seems more in keeping with the first kanji to refer to 'pleasing' and 'good' and it is also in keeping with the tenor of the text which I was reading; and also many other examples where '好' is a prefix.
The following entries need action:- 好対照 【こうたいしょう】 (?) ???; RH [DELETE] 好対照で 【？】 in marked contrast to; WI2 [ADD THE READING AS 'こうたいしょうで' IF IT IS NECESSARY TO KEEP THE ENTRY] |

| Comment | The above is the result of clicking on '雑 【ぞう】 (?) ???; RH', which I had intended to promote by the meaning of 'miscellany', as per Nelson.
However, clicking on that entry throws up various oddities. For example: the above headword '板間静脈'. All of the following, when clicked on, throw up wrong entries and naturally the examination of the 'kanji' throws up the same:- 雑 【ぞう】 (?) ???; RH 雑 【ま】 (?) ???; RH 雑 【まじ】 (?) ???; 雑ざ 【まざ】 (?) ???; RH I hope that is not a malfunction from my end. |

| Comment | In the above, and many other places, I am just wondering why 'ateji' is not written in hiragana.
I suppose that I am correct when I read 'ateji' as '当て字; 宛て字; 宛字; 当字; あて字 【あてじ】 (n) phonetic-equivalent character; substitute character' and that it does not have a different meaning when written as 'ateji' in your entries. |

Well needle and pin both sound straight, while "(fish)hook", obviously, always implies a curve at the end. 針 certainly is used to mean fish-hook (and I presume other hooks as well, and fish-hook is not naturally implied by the first two glosses to my mind. |
