Possible missing sense[edit]

Dayereh is "a medium-sized frame drum with jingles": so can a jingle be a small bell, or some such thing? Equinox 23:38, 15 August 2015 (UTC)Reply

I think it's a thing that produces the sound described in definition one, which is I guess by definition also a bell? WurdSnatcher (talk) 23:42, 15 August 2015 (UTC)Reply
 Done I see we now have this sense. Equinox 22:38, 10 November 2019 (UTC)Reply

Another possible missing sense[edit]

Chambers 1908 has "a correspondence of sounds", presumably meaning something like a rhyme or an alliteration. I don't think it's quite the same as the modern sense of a catchy advertising slogan. Equinox 22:37, 10 November 2019 (UTC)Reply
