      GG5 has sense 2 as a comment on sense 1. I actually like it split this way.

      imo it'd be better to convert sense 1 into a note for sense 2 like meikyo
      sankoku has only sense 3, it might be the most common usage
    • Refs
      add [lsrc] (sankoku, daijr/s, etc.)
      add [col] to sense 3 (sankoku, obunsha)
