光線 --> light ray
銃 --> gun
But what is the correct romanization for these kanji? That should not be too difficult.
光線 is written "kōsen" or "kousen" if we write "ou" instead of the long "ō"
銃 is written "jū" or "juu" if we write "uu" instead of the long "ū"
Together this forms "Kousenjuu".
Nintendo however writes it as "Kosenjyu" on the guns.
Kosenjyu? Wait a minute. Is that correct? |
Is this an error? Or an alternative romanization?
Who has more information about this?
For now I will stick with "Kousenjuu".
"juu" is correct. "jyu" is an older way of romanizing the same Japanese characters.
