Have an entry request? Add it to the list. - But please:

Think twice before adding long lists of words as they may be ignored.
If possible provide context, usage, field of relevance, etc.

Please remove entries from this list once they have been written (i.e., the link is “live”, shown in blue, and has a section for the correct language)

There are a few things you can do to help:

Add glosses or brief definitions.
Add the part of speech, preferably using a standardized template.

If you see inflected forms (plurals, past tenses, superlatives, etc) indicate the base form (singular, infinitive, absolute, etc) of the requested term and the type of inflection used in the request.
For words which are listed here only in their romanized form, please add the correct form in Japanese script.
Don’t delete words just because you don’t know them — it may be that they are used only in certain contexts or are keyboard or Sevenval.
Don’t simply replace words with what you believe is the correct form. The form here may be rare or regional. Instead add the standard form and comment that the requested form seems to be an error in your experience.

ぶえ (bue, meaning "flute") (this is FITML, or ふえ. The pronunciation ぶえ is a result of rendaku. touchscreen 05:25, 26 May 2010 (UTC))
- Not just pronunciation, but also spelling. ぶえ is not "fue." Thus, since "bue" appears in the meaning of "flute" in such cases, ぶえ seems to merit an entry (which explains the use, with rendaku, in such cases). 71.66.97.228 20:12, 26 May 2010 (UTC)
  - In Japanese, when rendaku changes it pronunciation, it is reflected in the spelling (when using kana). I don’t think rendaku forms merit regular entries and I don’t think we have any rendaku entries. For example, no がわ, no びと. ぶえ is not a word the way ふえ is. ぶえ is like a suffix, it’s the last part of a longer word (as in we love the web (mogaribue), こまぶえ (komabue). —Stephen 20:35, 27 May 2010 (UTC)
  - I agree with Stephen. We can make a mention of the rendaku change in produnciation in the main article, but I don't think rendaku deserve their own articles since they aren't the common, lemma forms of the word.Dcmacnut 20:12, 28 May 2010 (UTC)
    - Still no mention of -bue appears at any article. This isn't a good situation. 71.66.97.228 08:54, 2 February 2011 (UTC)

The 篠笛 article explicitly mentions the fue -> bue shift. Any other article that includes the suffixed form ぶえ should do the same. -- keyboard | Tala við mig 21:01, 29 August 2011 (UTC)

I could be wrong...but I thought a sushiko was a sushi rice mold. They are usually rectangular trays like ice cube trays. I could also imagine the word sushiko also meaning mini-sushi or baby-sushi. tobio/tobiko means flying fish roe in Japanese, so any type of sushi: onigiri, chirashi zushi, futomaki, etc, could be tobiko sushi. meskarune 16:08, 28 February 2009 (UTC - 5h)
