	Comments:	The example sentences in this entry are not properly matched up with the different meanings they are meant to illustrate. They should be rearranged as follows: 1. to come true (wish)esp. 叶う • もし病気の人が千羽の鶴を折ると、その人の願いが叶うの。If a sick person folds one thousand paper cranes, her wish will come true. 2. to be suited Usually written using kana alone, See also 道理に適う • 彼は我々の心にかなう人物だ。He is a man after our own hearts. 3. to match (implies competition); to rival; to bear (e.g. I can't bear the heat)esp. 敵う • バレエ音楽の指揮者として彼にかなうものはいない。He stands alone as a conductor of ballet music. In addition, I would suggest adding a comment that かなう in the third meaning above (敵う: to be a match for) is usually used in a NEGATIVE sentence construction, as in the example you provide, whose accurate but free translation, however, happens to mask the negative construction: "He stands alone as . . . ," i.e., "There is no one who can rival him as . . . ."

	Comments:	"throw open a breaker" means nothing in English. (Google it: all citations go back to J/E dictionary entries.) A breaker is, in English, a circuit breaker. Circuit breakers are designed to trip if the circuit is overloaded. They can also, of course, be deliberately tripped, before working on your wiring, for instance. But the primary meaning, as the use of 壊れる indicates, is involuntary tripping of the circuit breaker to protect the wiring because, for example, too many appliances on the same circuit have been turned on at once. Also, circuit breakers are not specific to computers; I thus changed the field from comp to engr

	Comments:	"throw open a breaker" means nothing in English. (Google it: all citations go back to J/E dictionary entries.) A breaker is, in English, a circuit breaker. Circuit breakers are designed to trip if the circuit is overloaded. They can also, of course, be deliberately tripped, before working on your wiring, for instance. But the primary meaning, as the use of 壊れる indicates, is involuntary tripping of the circuit breaker to protect the wiring because, for example, too many appliances on the same circuit have been turned on at once. Also, circuit breakers are not specific to computers; I thus changed the field from comp to engr
