| Headword 1 | 能力開発校 |

| Part-of-speech | n |
| English 1 | skill development school |
| Comment | I am using this new entry submission form to propose the removal of the entry 能力開発校 from ENAMDICT, where it is glossed as "Nouryokukaihatsukou". Two reasons for this proposal: a) this is not a place name, as ENAMNDICT suggests; b) it messes up the "Translate words" function when someone looks up the kanji in a text containing the expression 能力開発 (which is not uncommon). The desired output in that case would be
• 能力 【のうりょく】 (n) ability; faculty; (P) • 開発 【かいはつ】 (n,adj-no,vs) development; exploitation; (P) but instead one gets • 能力開発校 【のうりょくかいはつこう】 Nouryokukaihatsukou (p) NA which offers someone who does not already know the meaning of 能力 and 開発 no clue as to the what the text is about. :-) |

| Comment | As with the previous item, i have to use the new entry submission form to propose the removal of an entry from ENAMNDICT. In this case it is 障害者職業能力開発校, glossed as "Shougaishashokugyounouryokukaihatsukou", that should be removed. Again, two reasons: a) this is not a place name, as ENAMDICT suggests; b) it messes up the "Translate words" function when someone looks up the kanji in a text containing the expression 職業能力開発. The desired output in that case would be
• 職業 【しょくぎょう】 (n,adj-no) occupation; business; (P) • 能力 【のうりょく】 (n) ability; faculty; (P) • 開発 【かいはつ】 (n,adj-no,vs) development; exploitation; (P) but instead one gets • 職業能力開発大学校 【しょくぎょうのうりょくかいはつだいがくこう】 (p) Polytechnic University of Japan 【しょくぎょうのうりょくかいはつだいがっこう】 Shokugyounouryokukaihatsudaigakkou (p) NA which is of no help, really! :-) |

| Comment | Analogous to the previous two submissions, here is another bunch of entries that should be removed from ENAMDICT:
Not only 職業能力開発学校 but also 職業能力開発短大 【しょくぎょうのうりょくかいはつたんだい】 Shokugyounouryokukaihatsutandai (p) and 職業能力開発短期大学校 【しょくぎょうのうりょくかいはつたんきだいがくこう】 Shokugyounouryokukaihatsutankidaigakukou (p) These are not place names but generic expressions that can be appropriately translated from knowing the meaning of their constituent parts - and as they appear right now (untranslated Romaji), they just mess up the "Translate Words" function... :-) |

| Comment | This is not a new entry, but i don't get an "amend entry" form for ENAMDICT,
so i have to use this form. :-) The proposed amendment is a) to fix the hiragana reading (it is not だいがくこ う but だいがっこう) and b) to scrap the trailing (useless) string "Shokugyounouryokukaihatsudaigakkou (p)". I also think that in the case of an institution "(p)" for "place name" is not the right choice (many institutions exist in more than one location and some do not have any "place" associated with them at all since they require no specific locations or buildings for their functioning), but if there is no marker for "institution name" or such, then "p" may have to do... |

Maybe "o" is the best choice for an institution, instead of "p"? |

| Part-of-speech | n,vs |
| English 1 | rounding half up (i.e., fractions) |
| Reference | http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rounding#Round_half_up |
| Comment | "round up" is not sufficient for expressing this term. If you look at the "References" link I pasted, you will see that "round half up" is the only rounding method that corresponds exactly to 四捨五入. Also the "(esp. fractions)" is not appropriate as rounding, by definition, applies only to fractions. "(i.e., fractions)" is a suggested alternative for those (non-native speakers) not familiar already with the term "to round." |
