Comment | With about a quarter of a million hits on Google, I am wondering about any objection to promoting this entry.
One sees this in children's stories and usually it is all written in hiragana so the novice is not quite sure whether the "おもい" is "heavy" or "thinking". Your site provides the answer; really helpful! A promotion would allow it to be seen on a primary search. It would also ensure it retention. I think you said once that the "work in progress items could be deleted"; which would be a pity with such a helpful entry. |
