I learned a lot of old 訓読み for things that I thought I would never use

but later I did see!

I remember seeing 古(いにしえ) and feeling extremely validated

But I haven't been doing anki at all lately so I forgot a lot of the more obscure ones that I learned..

I remember learning いくさ and wondering if I'd ever see it..

I don't remember if I have

these are less obscure ones, though

I did a list for a while that gave me [礎]{いしずえ} and [橇]{そり} and a bunch of kanji for ivy. Then I realized that was a completely worthless list...

also how does iUnknown come up with questions?

well.. まさか and まさに look similar!

and edict is useless, so

i guess that's a path

そり as in "sleigh"

?

it also says かんじき

neither did I until just now

well, I only think of "sleigh" in the context of santa

when I learned ソリ it was presented as sleigh, though!

don't forget that sledge is in there somewhere too

"The word sleigh, on the other hand, is an anglicized form of the modern Dutch word "slee" and was introduced to the English language by Dutch immigrants to North America"

wikipedia says so

The word sled comes from Middle English sledde, which itself has the origins in Old Dutch word slee, meaning "sliding" or "slider". The same word shares common ancestry with both sleigh and sledge.[2] The word sleigh, on the other hand, is an anglicized form of the modern Dutch word "slee" and was introduced to the English language by Dutch immigrants to North America [3]

When I hear "sled", I think of the blue plastic thing I used to ride down the hill on the side of my house. When I hear "sleigh", I think of the thing pulled by reindeers, hopefully nowhere near the side of my house.

My, the world really is full of things

yeah!

I can't recall any specific context in which I've heard it called a sledge

but there is a distinct voice in my mind saying "hey don't forget that this is called sledge too and that is kind of silly"

It's called a sledge in The Lion , The Witch, and the Wardrobe -- which is one of the texts I use to teach English at a university.

It is absolutely the only use I get for a character that they don't know

By accident, I've learned they don't know the kanji for へりくだる　（謙る）or ぼかし (暈し)

I never use TWC.

yeah, pretty much. Some questions be like "how could you miss that?" And some questions be like "what?"

growing up in Liverpool ISTR sledge was more common than sled
