Although 屁 can be read as "onara" according to one or two dictionaries, it isn't, really, ever read as おな ら over へ. They are two different words, one more vulgar than the other (へ could perhaps be tagged [col] or [vulgar], おなら probably not), and they only share half of the glosses. Usage is different too: you say へをこく but not really おならをこく. Also おなら is [uk], while へ is't.</upd_detl> </audit> <audit time="2012-05-04 23:22:36" stat="A" unap="true"> <upd_uid>jwb</upd_uid> <upd_name>Jim Breen</upd_name> <upd_email>...address hidden...</upd_email> <upd_detl>One wit said that lexicographers are divided into "splitters and clumpers". I'm fairly much in the clumper camp, which is probably why JMdict is the way it is. That said, I agree that へ/おなら is a real borderline case, and is a shining example of the messiness of Japanese orthography. If there was a clean usage split between へ and おなら, e.g. one was always polite/clinical and the other was always col/vulg, I'd put them in different senses with comments to indicate usage, but it seems both are used in both applications. On balance I think they should stay in the one entry.</upd_detl> </audit> <audit time="2012-05-05 03:45:35" stat="A"> <upd_uid>rene</upd_uid> <upd_name>Rene Malenfant</upd_name> <upd_email>...address hidden...</upd_email> </audit> <audit time="2022-09-22 17:57:27" stat="A" unap="true"> <upd_uid>robin1354</upd_uid> <upd_name>Robin Scott</upd_name> <upd_email>...address hidden...</upd_email> <upd_detl>This should be two entries.
