Current Entry左図 [さず] /(?) ???/RH/
Headword 1左図
Reading 1さず
Part-of-speechexp
English 1plan which is shown on the left
ReferenceSee below.
CommentGoogle hits 200k. Usage in text is seen often. The meaning is given in both your links and elsewhere. The reading is given in both of your links.

Once one has got the reading and meaning confirmed, it is obvious, but the novice searches around and it does not seem to come up readily. Perhaps you will consider promotion.

If this headword can also have the reading as shown in the following "RH," then perhaps this should be shown in one entry:-

左図 【ひだりず】 (?) ???; RH

However, it will be disappointing to discover that the Japanese can say this headword in any way that takes their fancy and no one will be surprised.

Editorial Comment GG5 confirms this. I extended it a bit. (I think the ひだりず is just a 変換 artifact.)
