Talk:受け身

Adding Okurigana? In 受け身、the け is explicit and not part of the kanji reading, so I don't think it's necessary to put the け in it. In the alternate form 受身, け should be included in kanjitab because it's implied. See the kanjitab in 受取　受け取り Shen233 (talk) 20:30, 7 March 2020 (UTC)

@Shen233:, the parens indicate that the okurigana is optional -- it can be spelled out explicitly, or omitted. By way of example of this format, see the Daijirin entry here, where the URL clearly shows the け spelled out, and the parenthesis notation in the entry clarifies that the け is optional. ‑‑ Eiríkr Útlendi │^{Tala við mig} 20:51, 7 March 2020 (UTC)

@Eirikr: If "the parens indicate that the okurigana is optional", then they are misplaced -- they should be after the kanji instead. Having parentheses in the reading mistakenly suggests that part of the reading is optional. --Nyarukoseijin (talk) 06:41, 15 March 2020 (UTC)

No argument from me. I prefer the sample layout you have here, FWIW. ‑‑ Eiríkr Útlendi │^{Tala við mig} 17:59, 16 March 2020 (UTC)
