- Actually, I think "having the husk on" is the only cited meaning. The three cites for sense 1 all seem to mean "having the husk on", not "without a husk". The 1923 quote certainly does; it's contrasting polished rice (where the husk has been removed) with unhusked rice (where the husk has not been removed). The 1976 and 2006 quotes are less clear, but I suspect both of them are using sense 2 as well. —Aɴɢʀ (talk) 21:54, 14 November 2017 (UTC)
- I thought that one was questionable. The other two, however, are talking about varieties that can be planted, some of which have husks and some of which do not. Kiwima (talk) 22:03, 14 November 2017 (UTC)
- I have further cited the "without a husk" definition with some quotes that are clearer. Kiwima (talk) 22:15, 14 November 2017 (UTC)
