| Comments: | only 新和英中辞典 hints at it being "(shady)". prog's example seems quite neutral: "彼にはいい金脈がある He has a good patron [financial backer]." _ eij has "不正金脈の嫌疑 suspicion of shady financial dealings" but they specifically add "不正" in front. also "... 田中角栄の金脈問題 ... ... Tanaka's financial connections ..." but again, 問題 added |
