  Comments:
In one of the example sentences discussing UFOs, the English is grammatically 
incorrect (ie "an UFO") and otherwise does not sound like a native English 
speaker has checked this. The author was likely Japanese (as Japanese people 
pronounce UFO as "oo-fo" instead of as an abbreviation, which WOULD make 
"an" correct) and unfortunately the sentences probably are not very useful to 
people learning Japanese.

I would also like to add that the English definition "in a body" seems a bit off. I 
would think a phrase like "all together" or "as a whole" would be more 
appropriate. Maybe in some cases "united".
