Here’s an example: 悔しい [くやしい] If you have been learning Japanese for a few months, you would know this word. And chances are you learned it using a bilingual dictionary. Let’s look at the bilingual definition. vexing; annoying You may think, “what’s wrong with it?” I’ll tell you what’s wrong with it. It’s so vague to the point that it is literally wrong."

What do you think about making the first gloss "frustrated (over a failure, humiliation, or injustice)"? also, does "bitter" by itself work? google's dic: "2) feeling or showing anger, hurt, or resentment because of bad experiences or a sense of unjust treatment."</upd_detl> </audit> <audit time="2021-10-01 01:53:55" stat="A"> <upd_uid>jwb</upd_uid> <upd_name>Jim Breen</upd_name> <upd_email>...address hidden...</upd_email> <upd_detl>I'm always amused the way some people (a) bucket JMdict for its allegedly limited glosses, when often they are more extensive than the commercial JEs. In this case, it was wider than 中辞典 and ルミナス and much the same as GG5 (b) make NO attempt to submit expansions/corrections.
