Refs: | GG5 daijr koj all give 堰き止める daijr and koj have an entry for 塞く・堰く(せく) |
|
Comments: | * Remove [ok] from 堰き止める 堰く is a legit alternative spelling of 塞く(せく) – it’s not just used in the nominalized (okurigana-less) 堰(せき) (I assume this is the confusion that resulted in this getting flagged [oK] in the first place), and as this is a compound verb, proper form is to write the verb stem (堰き), not the deverbal (nominalized) verb (堰). * Also, clarify secondary sense |
