						<![CDATA[
						<p>Does anyone understand the format of the entries on dictionary.goo.ne.jp? Here are some examples of the trouble I am having:</p>
<p>First entry:</p>
<p><a href="http://dictionary.goo.ne.jp/leaf/jn2/168628/m0u/%E3%81%AB%E3%82%89/" rel="nofollow">http://dictionary.goo.ne.jp/leaf/jn2/168628/m0u/%E3%81%AB%E3%82%89/</a></p>
<p>The header line of this entry is:</p>
<p>にら・む【×睨む】</p>
<p>What is that little × doing in there? Is it there because that kanji isn&#8217;t one of the official ones?</p>
<p>Then the first line of the entry itself is this:</p>
<p>［動マ五（四）］</p>
<p>I&#8217;m guessing that is something about the grammatical type of the word, but I can&#8217;t look up what it means.</p>
<p>Then come the actual definitions. Here is the first one.</p>
<p>１ 目をいからしてじっと見る。鋭い目つきで見る。「じろりと―・む」</p>
<p>What is the part in brackets at the end?</p>
<p>Second entry:</p>
<p><a href="http://dictionary.goo.ne.jp/leaf/jn2/214122/m0u/%E8%A6%8B%E3%82%8B/" rel="nofollow">http://dictionary.goo.ne.jp/leaf/jn2/214122/m0u/%E8%A6%8B%E3%82%8B/</a></p>
<p>The header says:</p>
<p>みる【見る／▽視る／▽観る】</p>
<p>What are those triangles?</p>
<p>And then there is:</p>
<p>［動マ上一］［文］［マ上一］</p>
<p>What is that?</p>

						<![CDATA[
						<p>I asked about this on Google Plus:</p>
<p><a href="https://plus.google.com/u/0/101848191156408080085/posts/8WRW6e6v6zy" rel="nofollow">https://plus.google.com/u/0/101848191156408080085/posts/8WRW6e6v6zy</a></p>
<p>Also got sent this link on Twitter:</p>
<p><a href="http://dictionary.goo.ne.jp/help/jn/03_02.html" rel="nofollow">http://dictionary.goo.ne.jp/help/jn/03_02.html</a><br />
<a href="http://detail.chiebukuro.yahoo.co.jp/qa/question_detail/q105007965" rel="nofollow">http://detail.chiebukuro.yahoo.co.jp/qa/question_detail/q105007965</a></p>
<p>Basically, × shows that the kanji is not a standard use Jyouyou kanji. ▽ shows that the reading is not in the list of Jyouyou kanji.</p>
<p>１ 目をいからしてじっと見る。鋭い目つきで見る。「じろりと―・む」</p>
<p>This is a usage example: じろりと睨む. The ― shows where to use the kanji.</p>
<p>動 means &#8216;verb&#8217; (動詞)<br />
マ means the verb is from the ma,mi,mu,me,mo list<br />
五 means it is a &#8216;Godan&#8217; verb (grammatical expression)<br />
（四） means it is &#8216;Yodan&#8217; verb in old Japanese.</p>
<p>Still checking about 動マ上一&#8230;</p>
<p>Say thanks to the guys in the Google Plus thread. They are awesome at Japanese :)</p>

						<p>Apparently 上一段 下一段 上二段 下二段 are other conjugations used in classical Japanese. Durf posted some more stuff in the Google Plus thread. Hope that helps!</p>

						<p>Thanks for working on this. After failing to understand the entries themselves, I lost a bit of confidence and didn&#8217;t even try looking for the Japanese help text.</p>
<p>Cheers!</p>
