Adding new meaning

According to my Japanese teacher this words also means to sweep matters under the carpet. Hide things from view.

that meaning may be covered by the third definition..

In my opinion this is covered by the third sense. "sweep matters under the carpet" is just an expression mirroring that meaning. If you want you can add the gloss to the jmdict entry. Here's the link https://www.edrdg.org/jmwsgi/edform.py?svc=jmdict&sid=&q=1271480&a=2
