Name on tombstone

Latest comment: 8 years ago2 comments2 people in discussion

On her tombstone, the name is written as "Fuan Bunjaku". JoshuSasori (talk) 06:20, 6 July 2012 (UTC)Reply

The Chinese pronunciation of 范 is closer to 'Fan' and the Japanese closer to 'Han'. (And in any case 'h' and 'f' are not strongly distinguished in Japanese). As to whether it should be Fan or Fuan (or Han or Huan), that is sort of a matter of accent -- Fuan makes the middle vowel longer -- Fan is rendered as ファン and Fuan as フアン. 109.57.232.179 (talk) 14:09, 12 September 2015 (UTC)Reply
