Romusha does not translate to 'wood blocks' in Japanese. The correct word for that is maruta (丸太).

Neither of those words transaltes to "wood blocks". The word maruta is translated to "logs", as noted in the linked article. The word romusha translates quite literally to "laborer". Boneyard90 (talk) 14:17, 4 November 2011 (UTC)Reply
