Kenkyuusha Info

Kenkyuusha is a large publisher in Japan, and publishes many dictionaries (including Jack Halpern's New Japanese-English Character Dictionary which has been a huge help in supporting kanjidic). ASCII Corporation has Kenkyusha's New Japanese<->English Dictionary and Reader's English/Japanese Dictionary on-line. They both require raw-Japanese support (which you are not using now) and are targeted to the Japanese reader.

It seems that ASCII's pages require support for JIS encoding (you're currently using encoding). If you make sure that your [Options/Language Encoding] is set to [Auto Detect], you'll probably be alright.

As a matter of web-convenience, I have placed links on the bottom of my query results which will connect directly to ASCII's search engine. I try my best to make sure that the search key seems like what they want (and I don't include the link in situations where it seems completely hopeless), but there's no guarantee that it'll work.

I have no relationship with ASCII or Kenkyuusha, nor they with me. I merely add the links to be a friendly net neighbor.

Comments appreciated
