<< review queue entry 62270 - submitted by 'kevinmaynard' >> You do provide a definition for 残余: 'remnant / relic / residue / vestige / surplus / to remain / to leave surplus'; I strongly suspect that this is just a variant of the same phrase. ------------------------------------------------------ Editor: We have the following entry: 殘餘 残余 [can2 yu2] /remnant/relic/residue/vestige/surplus/to remain/to leave surplus/ and also 餘 馀 [yu2] /variant of 餘|余[yu2], remainder/ From these two entries, suitable software can deduce that 残馀 "is just a variant of the same phrase [残余]". In such cases, we do not list the variant explicitly. Of course, 残余 is by far the more common variant – about 170 times more common, according to Google Verbatim results: "残余" - About 10,100,000 results "残馀" - About 58,700 results |
