Talk:かな

This seems to be garbage. "かな" is "kana" in any case. Delete? &mdash; Hippietrail 05:23, 15 Oct 2004 (UTC)

Word's not emphasized.
In the second example here both original word and it's translation aren't emphisized with bold. --NikKotovski (talk) 10:59, 29 May 2016 (UTC)

Ety 1 (哉) and Ety 2
There seems to be confusion in the definition and usex of Ety 1. 哉 is an archaic word used for wonderous declaration (善き哉!); the other is a modern (as noted in the etymology) colloquial word used for wondering about uncertainty. —Suzukaze-c (talk) 08:50, 26 August 2021 (UTC)


 * Re: the etym of the spelling, see also the KDJ entry in Kotobank.  Looking at that etym section in our entry, I think it needs an "archaic" label.  Per that same KDJ entry, 「現代語でも和歌・俳句などによく用いられる. 」  So it sounds like this usage is not "obsolete".  ‑‑ Eiríkr Útlendi │Tala við mig 18:27, 26 August 2021 (UTC)
