<upd_detl>Encountered while translating manga.  One character was warning another that it was dangerous to get too close to baby monkeys, as the mother is often near.
This led to recounting an old story about the mother monkey's love for her children.</upd_detl>

<upd_detl>Not at all sure. The References usually don't have these 母X entries, which are very A+B.</upd_detl>

<upd_detl>The key reason I posted this here was because of the pronunciation shift from haha+saru to hahazaru.  If it weren't for the shift, a normal dictionary-based sentence parsing program like the one I wrote ten years ago would catch the two words separately.  But lacking a dictionary entry for ザル meaning 'monkey' (and there is no reason you should have one), the parser does not catch the word and display the meaning correctly.</upd_detl>

<upd_detl>I don't think we should include a term for the sole reason that it makes things easier for a sentence parser.</upd_detl>

<upd_detl>That wasn't the reason I eventually let it in. It is marginal, certainly, but I thought it interesting that 母ザル was the most common form.</upd_detl>
