According to the MLIT[1], Yotare Minami-no-wari, Take-no-gou shinden ooaza-tobishima tobishima ama, Aichi is the official place name.--Tan90deg 03:23, 5 December 2006 (UTC)Reply
Ôaza is Tobishima-shinden and aza is Take-no-gô Yotare-minami-no-wari, isn't it? tobishima ama should be somewhat capitalized, I think.--220.98.151.36 04:43, 2 January 2007 (UTC)Reply
Oh, I see. I think Take-no-gō Yotare-minami-no-wari, Tobishima-shinden, Tobishma, Aichi is suitable for the page name. I will add the {{Move}} {{Disputed_title}} tag to this article. --Tan90deg 15:52, 5 January 2007 (UTC) (Minor edit)--Tan90deg 16:16, 5 January 2007 (UTC)Reply
The Japanese is 愛知県海部郡飛島村大字飛島新田字竹之郷ヨタレ南ノ割, which transliterates (when put into Western order) to Yotare Minami-no-Wari, Azatake-no-Gō, Ōaza Tobishima Shinden, Tobishima-mura, Ama-gun, Aichi (see the Japanese Wikipedia entry for the kana). The MLIT is missing a couple things in their "official English", which isn't all that uncommon for "official" English in Japan. (^_-) ···日本穣? · Talk to Nihonjoe 17:21, 5 January 2007 (UTC)Reply
Nihonjoe, aren't you Japanese and don't you understand "aza" and "oaza" addres system ? Its Japanese official name "愛知県海部郡飛島村大字飛島新田字竹之郷ヨタレ南ノ割" means, 愛知県 Aichi-Ken(Aichi Prefecture), 海部郡 Ama-Gun(Ama District), 飛島村 Tobishima-Mura (Tobishima Village), 大字飛島新田 Ôaza Tobishima-Shinden (Tobishima-Shinden Greater Section), 字竹之郷ヨタレ南ノ割 Aza Takenogo-Yotare-Minami-No-Wari (Takenogo-Yotare-Minami-No-Wari Section). Therefore, it should be translated as Aza Takenogo-Yotare-Minami-No-Wari, Ôaza Tobishima-Shinden, Tobishima-Mura, Ama-Gun, Aichi-Ken. Peccafly 15:15, 31 January 2007 (UTC)Reply
