inspection

On-Yomi: シ — Kun-Yomi: み.る

Koohii stories:

1) [gorgon] 27-2-2006(168): The beaurocracy in Japan is such that even altars need to be inspection approved. A little man with glasses comes once a year to give the altar a "visual once over" as he calls it (perhaps checking for unauthorised symbology?).

2) [Ricardo] 2-9-2006(105): [inspection; regard as; see; look at] Inspection: you 示 show (#1086 示) and someone else 見 see (#57 見).

3) [phauna] 13-2-2008(71): (Thanks to Ricardo) There's an inspection in the church. You show the altar, and the inspector sees if it's okay or not.

4) [taikura] 19-11-2008(23): At the altar, god looks at you, in an inspection of your soul.

5) [Immacolata] 27-2-2006(14): The stone cutter inspects the altars with his keen eyesight for details. The surface must be smooth as ice, not a blemish must be seen. Very well, let me see the next stone altar.
