Looks like the Great Firewall or something like it is preventing you from completely loading www.skritter.com because it is hosted on Google App Engine, which is periodically blocked. Try instead our mirror:

legacy.skritter.cn

This might also be caused by an internet filter, such as SafeEyes. If you have such a filter installed, try adding appspot.com to the list of allowed domains.

strange definition of 囍 in db

沈唯達   September 15th, 2009 4:00p.m.

Looking at the definition for 囍, it says:

Pinyin: chuà
Definition:[placeholder--unavailable word; will add soon.]


Seems like this has been done on purpose, but it would be more useful if it would say something like:

Pinyin: xǐ
Definition: double happiness;symbol of good luck, esp. marriage

There are a lot of characters like this, actually. It means it's not available yet, but if you try to study it, we get notified and create it (usually within a day or two).

OK, that sounds great. I was just not sure if it was originating from A. Random User, and coupled with the lack of editability in the db, that would effectively "block" the character from having a correct definition. So I was a bit reluctant to actually start studying it with that kind of description attached; a bit of a chicken'n'egg situation, I suppose :)
