Talk:route

RFC discussion: June 2012–November 2017
Definition "The way to do something." I find this way too general and/or ambiguous. For example, if I see someone holding a cricket bat wrong, I can't sau "you're using the wrong route" or "your route is wrong". Mglovesfun (talk) 21:01, 8 June 2012 (UTC)

Rfv-sense: The major provinces of imperial China from the Later Jin to the Song, corresponding to the Tang and early Yuan circuits.
 * Also called lu, circuit, or province.


 * Firstly, the defn should be in the singular. Secondly, googling for this isn't easy... --Gente como tú (talk) 12:32, 20 January 2018 (UTC)


 * After finding this, I am pretty convinced that the word still refers to the first definition (a course or way which is traveled), as the Chinese versions (using lu) are also included. Kiwima (talk) 19:53, 20 January 2018 (UTC)
 * Then again, I did find one citation that uses the word route to refer to the administrative division, and another mention that states lu is often translated as route. Kiwima (talk) 20:03, 20 January 2018 (UTC)
 * This is now cited Kiwima (talk) 20:15, 20 January 2018 (UTC)
