<< review queue entry 12344 - submitted by 'ycandau' >> unfortunate instance of a basic entry which was rather incomplete and muddled. << resubmitted review queue entry 11959 - submitted by 'rollastout' >> I reviewed 8 different dictionaries and yours was the only source to include the 3rd tone and the differentiating definition. At least 2 other sources included the word "raft" as one of the definitions for PAI2 and listed two examples: MU-PAI 木排, "timber raft; a raft of logs" and ZHU-PAI 竹排, "bamboo raft." It would seem that these two terms should be listed under PAI3 instead of PAI2, but the other sources do not list PAI3. Additionally, the 2 examples that you provide for PAI3 are: 排瀉 PAI-XIE "to excrete" and 排瀉物 PAI-XIE-WU "excretement," neither of which are consistent with your definition of PAI3, "row of logs or boards." Instead, these two terms seem to be more consistent with multiple definitions found under PAI2 - e.g., a) to clear out; b) to expel; to eject; to exclude; to discharge; to get rid of; to eliminate; to drain; c) to push, to push open, to shove, Are the other sources incorrect? Or is this source incorrect? |
