@justinrleung, May I please propose to kyujitai for the Nan origin because it reflects the period of the borrowing? I may have asked this before somewhere but don't know where to find it. Hongthay (talk) 02:58, 7 April 2016 (UTC)Reply

You asked me for 預備. @suzukaze-c What do you think? — justin(r)leung (t...) | c=› } 03:03, 7 April 2016 (UTC)Reply
I don't really care about this one. I'm okay with this. —suzukaze (tc) 03:04, 7 April 2016 (UTC)Reply
Ok, changed it back to 疊. — justin(r)leung (t...) | c=› } 03:16, 7 April 2016 (UTC)Reply

Umm.. is there a reference for Etymology 2? Wyang (talk) 03:17, 7 April 2016 (UTC)Reply

LOL. Have you seen MoE Entry #31151? Hongthay (talk) 03:25, 7 April 2016 (UTC)Reply
That is kanji though. What about use of 疊 for this sense in written Min Nan? Wyang (talk) 03:28, 7 April 2016 (UTC)Reply
I see what you mean. I think it would require more research to show whether they write or ever wrote 疊 with the intention of the tha-thá-mih reading. Thanks. Hongthay (talk) 03:53, 7 April 2016 (UTC)Reply
Before we can prove that it is used in writing and read so, maybe we should suppress the display of the section? Wyang (talk) 06:04, 7 April 2016 (UTC)Reply
I think we should. Also, I think it's more likely for it to be written as 榻榻米 like here. — justin(r)leung (t...) | c=› } 06:35, 7 April 2016 (UTC)Reply
Concur. Couldn't find it in TDJ online. (Then again haven't found that many loanwords in it so far.) Hongthay (talk) 07:59, 7 April 2016 (UTC)Reply
I've removed the etymology now. Wyang (talk) 13:49, 7 April 2016 (UTC)Reply
