From Ruby Annotation (2001-05-31) | Glossary for this source
For ideographs: Technical term; indication of possible
pronunciation. Different from pronunciation in various respects:
script used may not be fully phonetic; actual pronunciation is
speaker-dependent; pronunciation may not be realized when reading a
text silently. In Chinese or Korean, some ideographs have several
readings. In Japanese, most ideographs have at least two readings,
and some have a lot more. Readings also may depend on context.
