Etymology edit

@Justinrleung, Poketalker How should with deal with terms like this? It is clear that the pronunciation of the characters in this term were taken directly from the Mandarin pronunciation, since it does not follow the regular Japanese onyomi. However, the term in this form isn't really used in Chinese; you would typically use 海底撈月 in Chinese instead. The dog2 (talk) 16:46, 22 October 2020 (UTC)Reply

@The dog2: We'll have to see if 海底摸月 has attestation in Chinese and check if the earliest attestation in Chinese is before the earliest attestation in Japanese. — justin(r)leung (t...) | c=› } 16:48, 22 October 2020 (UTC)Reply
