Expanding

[edit]

Needs expanding. KDJ and others also list this as aru wa, from ある + は. ‑‑ Eiríkr Útlendi │Tala við mig 18:05, 5 August 2019 (UTC)Reply

Alternative spellings 或いは
或るいは
或は*
This term is often spelled in hiragana.
@Eirikr: Thanks for the heads-up. By the way, what about making the following changes to {{ja-kanjitab}}?
  1. Mark alternative spellings that have other readings. (This is easy to implement by looking at the entry linked to and see whether it has multiple etymology sections, but it is memory-consuming.)
  2. Allow the |uk= parameter, thus (partly) doing away with the need of {{ja-uk}}.

Umm, may be #1 isn't a good idea because a few other labels are more needed, such as "irregular okurigana usage", "archaic", "obsolete", etc. --Dine2016 (talk) 07:13, 6 August 2019 (UTC)Reply
@Dine2016: I like the idea. But if it's computationally too expensive, and if it's too complicated (and it appears you're uncovering further complexities), I also don't think it's necessary.  :) ‑‑ Eiríkr Útlendi │Tala við mig 16:39, 6 August 2019 (UTC)Reply
