腹すいた　なんかいいもの　食べたいな　とは思うけど　しごとやらなきゃ

季語なしなぁ

あと１時間で、終わりそうで

たぶん

ええとね、Wikiに書かれてるのは

「字余りがゆるされるのは母音ないし撥音が含まれる場合が多い。」

だって。

最後の１音のことを言ってるのかと思ったんだけど

ようわからん

I have a quick question that might not be suitable for the main site. In WWWJDIC, kanji spellings of words are often annotated with (P), (iK), or (oK). What do they stand for?

@snailboat great, thanks

the Android app is lacking this documentation page, alas

Would 考拉肉 be the correct Chinese for koala meat? I looked up the Chinese for koala, and added 肉.

@YangMuye Would 考拉肉 be correct Chinese for koala meat?

Yes, that's right.

Thanks.

I just realized it's not a 俳句. So it doesn't need 季語

@Andrew, you're welcome.

@YangMuye If by not a haiku you mean regular prose, then that's accurate. 短歌 (e.g. 5-line poems) still require 季語 and 切れ字

@snailboat りょうてのに　じどうドアに　おじぎして it's not 7 5 7...

@Kaji そっか

世の中に、色と酒とが敵なり、どうぞ敵に　めぐりあいたい

My favorite. There is no 季語, ね?

しのぶれど、色に出でにけり、わが恋は、ものや思うと、人の問うまで

no 季語, too, it seems.

こあらにく？？？

食べてもいいの、コアラって

うげえ

ｗｗｗｗ

犬肉、けんにく、とか・・・いわないかな

もっと野菜食べよう、アンドリューさん！

ｗｗｗｗ

I'm hungry now

what nobody's mentioned is that "dog meat" in English doesn't usually mean the meat of a dog, but meat for a dog

@YangMuye Not saying there aren't exceptions to the rule, just that formally the rules require it.

@DanHulme Good point

I think the surrounding context colored the interpretation a bit

"When you get home you're dog meat! Understand!?"

Something along those lines

it's a lot rarer than "dog food"

Yeah, it's extremely colloquial

Haven't heard it in a long time, myself

but then the meat of a dog is uncommon in English-speaking countries anyway

True

Horse meat is often used figuratively as well to refer to something barely edible

That doesn't have the same inversion as dog meat, however

We have a word けんしょく I think

犬食

「犬を食べる習慣」のことだと思います

たぶん

well, eating horse used to be common in the UK until the last century, and even after that, it was quite common to feed horse to your cat

In the US I think it carries more of a desperate connotation, as horses were essential to daily life—especially out west

That, and to most Americans killing a horse for food is about as unthinkable as doing it to the family dog

hehehe...

Along those lines

@snailboat I do use Safari, tell me about "sharing": I'll do my best to take it in using my mediocre on-line skills......

BTW: My apple dictionary still contains 大辞泉、類語例解辞典 and プログレシッブ. Do you know how can I get the new dictionaries w/o losing the old? I suspect if I run an update these will be replaced by the new ones.....

There's one other thing about the "share" links: they have your user ID, which the site uses to track how many visits you're responsible for. You get badges for bringing lots of people to a question.

@Tim I pulled them from an old G5 that had Leopard on it (been running Macs for a long time) and put them on my new machines from there. I've also got backups I keep in Dropbox just in case something happens during reinstalls and so forth

Not sure if upgrading kills them or not, but if you have a backup it's easy to put them back into place after the upgrade is complete

Also, the dictionary files themselves are stored in /Library/Dictionaries (note that this is the root library, not the user library)
