五月病

Needs to have the etymology and pronunciation headers, as well as the ja-noun template instead of categorized, but I don't know how to do that without removing the extra parenthesized information "ごがつびょう, gogatsubyō"; I don't know what that is, but if it's etymological information it should be placed somewhere else.

"ごがつびょう, gogatsubyō" is the pronunciation of 五月病. Literally, "May illness". The kanji box provides a good etymology. —Stephen ^(Talk) 07:54, 12 May 2011 (UTC)

I added {{ja-noun}}. --Mglovesfun (talk) 16:25, 12 May 2011 (UTC)

It seems to mean "five month disease", I'd prefer an actual etymology to looks up the kanji. Mglovesfun (talk) 15:22, 13 May 2011 (UTC)

No, it is "May disease". "Five month disease", if there were such a thing, would be 5ヶ月の病気. Japanese New Year falls in April, a time of renewal, and those who fail to adjust to change well may suffer depression in May. —Stephen ^(Talk) 17:02, 13 May 2011 (UTC)

That's why I want an etymology... see? Mglovesfun (talk) 14:19, 14 May 2011 (UTC)

Etymology added. Jamesjiao → ^{T ◊ C} 23:38, 19 May 2011 (UTC)

Issue appears addressed (it’s properly categorized, and there’s an etymology), so I’ve removed {rfc} from the article – does it look ok?

Striking. Missing etymology and pronunciation is not a RFC issue. The entry is now marked up using "ja-noun" template. --Dan Polansky 10:06, 29 May 2011 (UTC)
