Talk:神食

RFV discussion: December 2016–April 2017
does not convince me of this term's existence. Did anon seriously take the title of some obscure manga (whose cover tells you to pronounce it as, not ) as proof of this term? —suzukaze (t・c) 11:02, 29 December 2016 (UTC)
 * This IP certainly has been known to create entries from misinterpretations of random phrases in manga, but they've also been known to use Bing Translate. They're convinced that there has to be a Japanese term for everything, including obscure details of non-Asian mythologies that Japanese people rarely or never discuss anywhere a random person in the UK would have access to. Since they know next to nothing about the language, any method producing something vaguely like Japanese seems as good to them as the most meticulously-researched content that others might contribute.

 * Oh dear, this fellow again? &lt;sigh.../&gt;
 * There are enough hits on Google to lead me to think this is a term -- that, and the kanji compound is reasonably straightforward, as + .  However, the reading the anon used is horribly wrong -- should be shinshoku if anything -- and this just means “god food, food of the gods”, not necessarily .  See also  (throwing in the は to focus on JA hits and exclude ZH ones).
 * For that matter, Eijiro has an entry for this and amusingly glosses the term as . Google hits suggest that this meaning, if used, is decidedly in the minority.
 * Rework or delete. ‑‑ Eiríkr Útlendi │Tala við mig 06:55, 31 December 2016 (UTC)


 * RFV failed. It seems like a pretty straightforward compound, but feel free to recreate it with a new def if "food of the Gods" would be an appropriate entry. —Μετάknowledge discuss/deeds 04:43, 14 April 2017 (UTC)
