| Comments: | It seems this can be used for a range of conditions from "spoiled" to "half-rotten" to "decaying". The reference pages show various examples (e.g., The milk is beginning to go bad. : 牛乳が腐りかけている; The milk is on the turn. : この牛乳は腐りかけている; 腐りかけの幹 : rotting tree trunks; decaying vegetables : 腐りかけている野菜) |

| Comments: | standard use of -かける, but it appears to get 2.5 mil hits, so perhaps worth keeping. the english is somewhat idiomatic in any case |
