<< review queue entry 85006 >> no ----------------- Editor: The following Tang-period source is quoted in a footnote in the Wikipedia article on 風箏: （唐）高承《事物紀原》：「紙鳶其制不一，上可懸燈，又以竹為弦，吹之有聲如箏，故又曰風箏」 https://zh.wikipedia.org/zh-tw/%E9%A3%8E%E7%AD%9D#cite_note-7 In addition, the following Ming-dynasty source is cited in 汉语大词典: 明·陈沂《询𫇴录》：「风筝，即纸鸢，又名风鸢。初五代汉李业于宫中作纸鸢，引线乘风为戏。后于鸢首以竹为笛，使风入作声如筝，俗呼风筝。」 Both sources explicitly link the name 風箏 to the sound produced by whistle-like attachments. If there is a specific objection to this etymology or to the inclusion of etymology notes in CC-CEDICT entries generally, it would be helpful to state it. A bare "no" does not provide a basis for evaluating or justifying deletion. |
