| Reference | See below. |
| Comment | Perhaps you would consider promoting this. It gets some 10k Google hits. It is covered in some articles in Wikipedia. RM (45) gives the translation. [He also adds that it is sometimes simply "プチ", but you may not think that this reading can be added under the above main headword and also make sequential sense. It seems that the "プチ" may reflect the French "petit". There is a reference for "プチブル" for petit bourgeois.] |

| Comment | After submitting the previous entry i got the following reply:
Thank you. Your submission has been received and is being checked. [...] WARNING! - the proposed entry has non-Japanese character(s) in one of the kanji fields. Due to errors your submission will not be processed. So this is to confirm that the entry will get into Jim's hands. My amendment consisted of adding, in place of a second kanji, the ubiquitous term "OA" - none of the shops i know use the term "オフィスオートメーション", they all use "OA" - such as in "OA機器販売", etc. |

| Comment | Re Hendrik's comment above. You need to put 全角
alphabetics in the kanji field to get them accepted. I have just added: ＯＡ [オーエー] /(n) (see オフィスオートメーション) office automation/OA/ which I think is the appropriate way to handle this. |

| Comment | One of my pet peeves is the lack of translation of proper nouns in literature. The proper nouns have very significant symbolism which is totally lost if not translated. Have you given any thought to creating a dictionary of translated place names in addition to the transliterated place names dictionary? |

You can get that sort of 直訳 information by pasting 三件茶屋 into

I'll leave creating such a dictionary to someone else. |
