<< review queue entry 72274 - submitted by 'lite3000' >> Definition found on Yellowbridge and Zdic https://www.zdic.net/hans/%E7%B2%98%E7%A8%A0 --------------------------------- Editor: We already have this word implicitly, since we have 黏稠 黏稠 [nian2 chou2] /viscous/thick/ and 粘 粘 [nian2] /variant of 黏[nian2]/ If 粘稠 doesn't show up in your dictionary app, it's a deficiency of the app, since it doesn't recognize that these two entries imply that 粘稠 is a variant of 黏稠. In fact, we used to have exactly the entry you have submitted: 粘稠 粘稠 [nian2 chou2] /thick/viscous/sticky/ ... but deleted it as redundant: https://cc-cedict.org/editor/editor.php?log_id=63859&popup=1&handler=ViewLogEntry However, - it appears that 粘稠 is the more common variant, and - 粘稠 is the form given in HDC, GR and M so I'm replacing our existing 黏稠 entry with an entry for 粘稠. * * * 粘稠 doesn't mean "thick" or "sticky", but rather "thick and sticky". |
