| Comment | O dear, vocabulary from the wonderful world of Japanese visual novels, dōjinshi, anime and manga. Quite popular though, so who are we to judge. ("ヤンデレ" pushes it way over 1.000.000 Googits)
A contraction of 病んでいる and デレデレ. |

| Part-of-speech | n |

| English 1 | polarisation |
| Reference | Japanese IME Anthy confirms the reading.
ALC says "bipolar（考え方などが）" |
| Comment | ALC's translation seems literally correct, but to me carries a very strong connotation of a mental illness.
Seen in usage in an article in Asahi Shinbun, which noted that junior and middle school students are split into two (polar opposite) groups when it comes to how much time they spend on physical education and training each week. This kind of usage seems the most common, along with "the polarisation of the debate" (議論の二極分化) |

| Comment | Happy New Year!
I think there's a typo in this (WIP) entry, ("flue" S/B "flu", corrected above). Also, perhaps the terms "influenza" (less colloquial) and "vaccination" (related term) should also be included. > Identical problem in JMdict (WIP) entry for 流感の予防接種 > Note: While a common term (at least in Am. English) "flu shot" returns no (appropriate) results in EDICT search. > Sorry, last gripe--not sure where to send! Seems to be a Firefox (3.0.5) problem, but it's tricky to select an entry (or part thereof) to copy. Usually drops selection--seems to reselect the radio button instead, (perhaps consequence of intended behavior). Suggest alternative such as "copy" button, or maybe simply auto-populate search box when radio clicked? Excelsior! :) (FWIW!) |
