      I quite like Wiktionary's definition.
      Dropping the [ok] readings. I don't think they're worth having as separate [arch] entries.

      I preferred it the way it was, but if we want a single gloss, probably "mochi (sticky rice cake)" would be better.
      The JEs don't really offer suitable solutions.

      Seems to short of an explanation to warrant an [expl]?
