| Comment | Sorry to come back on this headword and the earlier submissions, but I have been doing some more research into the matter.
I questioned the other submissions which were made by you and "Name" and I wondered whether this entry should be treaty as a "relative" concept as opposed to the simple aspect of "priority." I noted that your site already had an entry for "priority," namely:- 優先 【ゆうせん】 (n,vs,adj-no) preference; priority; precedence; (P). That entry gets over 20m. Google hits. The above headword "優先度" gets some 600k Google hits. Following your suggestion about entering kanji plus readings into the search, I decided to try kanji plus meanings. I entered "優先度" plus "relative" and up came a great number of results with the concept of "relative priority." I hope that you do not mind my returning on this one and I hope that the repeating of my suggestions above is not being the repetition of a nuisance. |

| Comment | Adding this entry will solve the current problem that, if a text contains this phrase, using "Translate Text" can only offer the opposite meaning (the entry in SP)
Re your comment that you didn't have an e-mail address on file for me: 2 of the addresses you used the other day are working OK. :-) But i don't put any mail addresses on public web pages, since they would get spammed soon and as a consequence have to be taken out of service anyway... |
