Why do we single out "Korean" as a subsense, if the usage note suggests the most common sense is Vietnamese? Should we add a "Vietnamese" subsense, or do away with the subsenses? - -sche (discuss) 20:11, 2 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

There might be a good use for {{defdate}} here. The Korean definition probably declined a lot as the Vietnam War became more important to the US military and as the Koreans became more prosperous. DCDuring TALK 21:24, 2 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]


What about an entry/etymology for this? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gook_%28headgear%29 — This unsigned comment was added by 199.38.168.111 (talk).
