Comment | I submitted 棊布(する)as a new entry about an hour ago, but now have one more detail to add concerning its meaning: It seems to typically imply a positive/constructive/harmonious/esthetic _balance_ among the (group of) things involved.
In addition to the English equivalents suggested in my initial submission, perhaps 'distribute/distribution' comes close. |
