Opps. I've been bit by this before and should know better. Yes -- WWWJDIC says exactly what I was looking for but I'm used to using Rikaichan which says onlySteve, 件 is a counter for events or... I'm struggling here... incidents, or issues (maybe)... I'm not sure there's any way to nail this down more generically in English. But when you get used to it it seems natural enough :-) Actually, WWWJDIC gives a pretty concise summary... Dave
件 けん (n) matter; case; item
vs. the current WWWJDIC entry which is:
件 【けん】 (n) (1) matter; case; item; (ctr) (2) counter for cases, matters, etc.; (P)
I need to remember to actually check WWWJDIC when Rikaichan doesn't fit.
Thank you Dave.
