There are a lot of words like this that have come into Mandarin from Cantonese and are now widely used. Another example is 拍拖, whose definition is the same as 谈恋爱.

So, it would be most efficient if this definition were only a "See also" and an indication that it's from Cantonese. That way, if something is changed/added in the definition of 零钱 we don't have to come update this as well. What's the convention for "see also"? Is this ok?
