To my knowledge, the term "chagama" is not the standard word for this item in the vocabulary of the Japanese Tea Ceremony. On the other hand, the term "kama" in the Japanese language does not necessary indicate the kind of item known as "kama" in the Japanese Tea Ceremony -- the item possibly called "chagama". It seems to me that these distinctions need to be addressed in a general wikipedia article on the topic of "kama," even if the article heading has a parenthesized "(Japanese tea ceremony)" added to it.Tksb (talk) 14:37, 27 May 2009 (UTC)Reply
It seems like the "chawan"/"matchawan" distinction. No tea person would call a tea bowl a "matchawan" unless it was necessary to distinguish between a rice bowl and a tea bowl. The same thing seems to be at work here, although I'd say both terms (matchawan and chagama) are common enough. Exploding Boy (talk) 15:21, 27 May 2009 (UTC)Reply
