<< review queue entry 85540 - submitted by 'becky82' >> I'm unsure about using 蛸 to mean "long-legged spider". I saw it here: > 长脚蜘蛛蟏蛸的省称 https://zi.tools/zi/%25E8%259B%25B8 It's saying it's an abbreviation of 蟏蛸 [a kind of spider] 一种蜘蛛。身体细长,脚很长。多在室内墙壁间结网。通称“喜蛛”或“蟏子”,民间认为是喜庆的预兆 https://www.zdic.net/hans/%E8%A0%A8%E8%9B%B8 We've already got this in CC-CEDICT, but we don't call it "long-legged spider". 蛸 (shao1) normally means "octopus": > 章鱼科（学名：Octopodidae），又名蛸[a]科，是头足纲章鱼目之下的一个科，其下包含了大部分的章鱼物种。 https://zh.wikipedia.org/wiki/%E7%AB%A0%E9%AD%9A%E7%A7%91 (the footnote gives the pronunciation: 蛸作章鱼时读作“shāo” ) > 章鱼的省称 种类甚多，我国习见的有饭蛸、长腕蛸、真蛸等《现代汉语词典》第7版p.1149，表示章鱼时读shao1 https://zi.tools/zi/%25E8%259B%25B8 If you put it into Google Image Search, they're all octopuses: https://www.google.com/search?q=蛸&udm=2 When used in dishes, it's often called 巴蛸 (we should add this too). E.g. 温拌巴蛸 https://baike.baidu.com/item/%E6%B8%A9%E6%8B%8C%E5%B7%B4%E8%9B%B8/3164946 I live in Weihai (Shandong) and they sell 辣炒巴蛸 here (it's an octopus dish) (I'd be tempted to delete "long-legged spider" as a definition. It seems rare or even unused.) |
