舟を編む

The story's focus on language and the passion behind creating a comprehensive dictionary is unique. I'm curious if the author was inspired by real projects or personal love for words.

Their devotion to capturing the nuances of words made me think about what language means in our lives. Did the characters’ journey resonate differently with others?

The cultural backdrop adds depth to the narrative, but I wonder how much of the story is shaped by Japanese linguistic traditions or perspectives.
