❓ About this entry
What is the difference between surface form and lemma?
The surface form (可愛) is the exact text as it appeared in the corpus — it may be conjugated or inflected. The lemma (可愛い) is the dictionary base form. For example, 食べた (surface) has the lemma 食べる.
What does the reading (pron) field mean?
The reading shows the pronunciation in hiragana or katakana as recorded by UniDic. For kanji entries this is the standard reading of this specific surface form — which may differ from other readings of the same kanji.
What is UniDic?
UniDic is a comprehensive Japanese lexicon developed by the National Institute for Japanese Language and Linguistics (NINJAL). It provides detailed morphological information for modern Japanese words, used in NLP tools like MeCab.
