| Comments: | FWIW, currently the [S]anseido link for this entry doesn't 'work' since its dictionaries only have the word listed in kana; you need to manually search for ほう to find the correct page. Doubt it matters but thought I'd mention. |

| Comments: | see rejected amendments to 方がいい and した方がいい. some may indeed be uk, but it's borderline and tough to show. in those two cases specifically, ngrams don't support it. of course it's virtually impossible to check for 方 vs ほう using a google search |

| Refs: | Tanaka corpus: Out of the 646 sentences tagged - 246 have ほう - 400 have 方 raw text search on tanaka corpus: - ほう 611 hits - 方 not searchable (too many false positives) |

| Comments: | From a prescriptive point of view, some of these glosses should be [uk], but descriptively, I'm not sure. |
