| Comment | this is a very "current" word, but not obvious from its parts (定額 and 給付金 would be "fixed (amount) payment").
Maybe "money handout", I don't know. |

| Comment | This came up in an email with a friend (52 year old Japanese woman residing in Hiroshima. Her note contained 「釣り書(つりしょ)パーソナル ヒストリー」. My IME (Windows XP) gives 釣書 for つりしょ. Also the ALC web page has one entry for 釣書 and nothing for any of the other variations. Also, a friend here (native Japanese) told me it was pronounced つりしょ.

| Editorial Comment | My IME (Canna) gives 釣書 for つりしょ too. All my dictionaries including 広辞宛 and 大辞林 are silent on つりしょ and only show つりがき. I suspect つりしょ is a modern (and mixed) reading. |

| Editorial Comment | Nelson is V E R Y old-fashioned. I think many of the post-war writing reforms, including the regularization of okurigana, passed him by. I'd prefer that amendments based on Nelson were confirmed by other sources. |
