Comment: << review queue entry 35796 - submitted by 'cepstral' >>

Editor: This is another construct 限时 + 供水 and furthermore, "water rationing" is
inaccurate. Water may be rationed in various ways, but 限时供水 refers specifically to
time restictions on the supply of water. However, once again, the submission prompts us
to improve one of our entries -- for 限.
Diff:
# 限時供水 限时供水 [xian4 shi2 gong1 shui3] /water rationing/
# Editor: modified the following entry
- 限 限 [xian4] /limit/bound/
+ 限 限 [xian4] /limit/bound/to set a limit (on)/
