Comment: << review queue entry 87715 - submitted by 'becky82' >>
Continuing on from 错别字 https://cc-cedict.org/editor/editor.php?queue_id=87714&return=MySubmissions&handler=ViewQueueEntry

I think this also needs editing to remove "mispronounced" from 别字. It refers to writing, where one character is incorrectly used instead of another character.

- 别字,汉语词语,指因字形、字音相近而误写或误读的字,如“寒暄”误作“寒喧”、“破绽(zhàn)”误读为“破定”,亦称“白字”或“别号”。 https://baike.baidu.com/item/%E5%88%AB%E5%AD%97/6060788

- 别字也称白字,就是字没有写错,但却用错了另外一个字。 https://zh.wikipedia.org/wiki/%E9%8C%AF%E5%88%A5%E5%AD%97#%E5%88%A5%E5%AD%97

We could consider adding an example here, such as writing 体息 instead of 休息

Editor: No further comments from other editors since 14th June, so I'll go ahead and process. Follow-up subs are always fine, of course.
