| English 1 | suffix for familiar person (see ちゃん) |
| Reference | See below. |
| Comment | Roy Miller, at footnote to 53, states that this equals "ちゃん" [but in non-standard dialect]. This submission picks up quite a few Google hits.
P.S. With reference to my submission, 2009-12-06, for "掃除する", I am obliged for your helpful comments. I tried the search again in the manner suggested and, as you stated, it came up top! I am pleased that I asked the question. I hope that the new submission above is not already on the site. I hope that I did not fail to see it because I did not search the 100s of results without the benefit of the right filter. |

| Part-of-speech | n |
| English 1 | (1) Kannon (Kwannon) |
| English 2 | Buddhist deity of mercy |
| English 3 | (2) (sl) clitoris |
| Comment | I think the second definition of 漢音様 as "clitoris" is a serious mistake. They must have intended the word 官能 instead, unless this is some sort of slang usage, in which case it should be noted. |

| Part-of-speech | n,vs |
| English 1 | industrialization |
| English 2 | industrialisation |

| Reference | ALC search for 事業化 |
| Comment | The context I was searching for was one where a product has been launched in the USA and they want to do 事業化 in Japan. Since they're already making the product "industrialization" seems off. I guess the nuance of 事業化 is slightly more amorphous, meaning 'make something into a money making thing'... |
