| Comment | Roy Miller at 54(12) states that this equals "書いておく[書いて置く]".
I do not know how obsolete this may be, but Google shows up some 150k hits. Perhaps it is worth an entry and also a cross-reference. |

| Comment | Just a query. I am wondering whether the 3rd Headword carries the same reading. It may well do, but it does not come up in any of my references. I do get "不知 [ふち]", but that is all.
I thought that I would make the submission whilst searching for the main headword (which I had searched in order to see if "知らず識らず" was included because that came up in some text I was looking at). |

| Editorial Comment | I take the point about it being a contraction of 書いておく, but given that it's not uncommon I'm inclined to include it. I've added a not about its derivation. |

しらず‐しらず【知らず識らず・不知不識】 大辞林 has just 知らず識らず and GG5 just 知らず知らず. |

| Comment | Hi, this is just to send a follow-up note that i noticed, after posting the previous entries, that the interface automatically translated the code in the reference URLs into Japanese characters encoded in UTF while the rest of the submission is encoded in EUC-JP. There is nothing i can do about this... sorry...

| Current Entry | 宜蘭 [ぎらん] (p) Yilan, Ilan (province and city in Taiwan) |
| Headword 1 | 宜蘭 |
| Reading 1 | ぎらん |
| Part-of-speech | p |
| English 1 | Yilan, Ilan, Gilan (province and city in Taiwan) |
| Reference | http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yilan_County,_Taiwan
I just found confirmed that the sound "Gilan" is not only Japanese but also what many of the locals say - specifically, those who speak 台湾語. ("Ilan" is the Wade-Giles reading and "Yilan" the Hanyu Pinyin reading.) (For a definition of 台湾語 see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Taiwanese_Minnan) |
| Comment | On November 6, Jim asked:
"Did you mean to duplicate the kanji part?" I didn't mean to, but i think it came out that way in the UTF to EUC conversion. There are two slightly kanji, one of which is called a "Unicode compatibility variant". The second kanji is not needed in the entry i submitted, since it is not used in Japanese, but FYI you may want to look at the reference page i have hoisted at http://www.shiroha.com/public/ran.html - if you copy those two kanji successively and plug them into http://www.mdbg.net/chindict/chindict.php (with the setting "traditional Chinese") you will get two slightly different explanations... |

| Comment | OK, it happened like this. I ran a spell-checker over the
words in edict2, and eye-balled them (I ran out of energy in the b's.) I saw "brassie", thought it looked odd, and checked it. Based on what I found, I extended the meanings. It was just me fiddling. I corrected quite a few spelling while I was at it, but it's a thankless task - there is a huge number of unique words. |
