Proper noun

 * 1) * 2001,, ‘‘Comrade Jiang Zemin does indeed seem a proper choice’, London Review of Books, vol. 23, no. 10:
 * Jiang Zemin has almost managed to make the event disappear down an Orwellian memory hole. Even in Western countries, sub-editors have taken to calling it the ‘Tiananmen crackdown’, rather than ‘massacre’, making it seem as insignificant as the endless stories about routine ‘crackdowns’ on smuggling, prostitution, counterfeit goods, VAT forms or corruption, which provide the stuff of daily reporting here in China.

Usage notes
can be considered a misspelling of. In theory, a syllable-dividing mark should be added before a non-initial syllable beginning with, , or. Hence, is not allowed since a word made up of,  and  would be spelled as  (cf. Tian'anmen), a word made up of , ,  and  would be spelled as  and a word made up of , ,  and  would be spelled as. In practice, syllable-dividing marks are often added or omitted at will.
