"A Pay" — is that English? edit

"Pay" is a verb.
Does this mean A Payment?

More concretely, is there any evidence the film was even released under this title? JoshuSasori (talk) 23:04, 12 April 2012 (UTC)Reply

Aye, there's the rub.

I am currently redoing the English and not-so-English film titles in List of World War II films. Making two columns out of one.

Someone, I have not bothered to determine whom, has added a lot of disparate titles to that page, taken from God knows where.

A lot of those titles seem to me to be crude or even erroneous translations of some foreign language title.

This is one, but there are many.

At this point, I am not pursuing this particular issue when there are bigger problems with that page.

Pending any better evidence I have moved the page to "Five Scouts". This is a correct translation of the Japanese title and appears to be at least one of the titles the film was released under. JoshuSasori (talk) 06:23, 15 April 2012 (UTC)Reply
