that sense is fine, but it applies to the archaic word ときなか

Certainly drop that odd sense 1. I'd prefer to keep the entry as it probably helps 
beginners. Also we have 60 sentences indexed. I'll approve and reopen as the sense change 
needs to be done.

I cannot find any evidence for sense 1.
Sense 2 is for expressions such as 六時半, but I'm not sure 時半 is a suffix here.
I would parse it as 六時 plus the suffix 半.

There are 60 tagged examples in Tanaka,
all of them sense 2 (a few are mistagged as sense 1)

We could:
1. reorder the senses (if anyone can find any evidence for sense 1)
2. drop sense 1
3. drop the entry entirely
