Comments: | 明鏡国語辞典 gives the two basic meenings here. Luminous gives "kowtow" only. The three kokugu dictionaries (広辞苑, 広辞苑, スーパー大辞林, 大辞泉) also give two additional, more specific meanings that involve actual bowing (before the emperor, in China), omitted here. I removed "in apology" since the dictionaries most commonly mention expressing (deep) respect (敬意). |
