However the example sentences all seem to use it correctly.

After seeing the comment about しゅうへん, I just had to go and see what sort of definitions they were giving for things.
Just in the first lesson, there were quite a few very very strange "definitions" for words that I find it quite hard to believe should be introduced to a beginner.
For example, the しゅうへん(周辺) Columbine pointed out...
もっと being defined as gold, money, metal.
きょうきゅう(供給) being defined as day/sun.
いりょう(医療) as birth.
ほしい(欲しい) as cooperation...
And it goes on and on. I have NO idea where they are coming up with these definitions, and would suggest avoiding at least that part of the site.
A site for studying that defines 勉強 as "attendant" has some
serious problems.
ETA; I really can`t stop laughing at it. 釣る is "child" and 車 is "go down"! Please look at the list for some great raised eyebrow and head shaking fun. One or two mistakes is one things, but this is almost 1 out of every 5.
