Nicholas Posted June 6, 2021 Report Posted June 6, 2021 What is the difference between koku ju and and kuni ju? Or is it the same thing? I can’t seem to find any information on the koku kanji. thank you Quote
Nicholas Posted June 7, 2021 Author Report Posted June 7, 2021 Thank you. So it basically means what country/province they are from. It’s not a title. Quote
Bugyotsuji Posted June 7, 2021 Report Posted June 7, 2021 When followed by Ju, it means 'living in'. 備前国 Bizen Koku, the Bizen region, Bizen. 備前の国 Bizen no Kuni, the region of Bizen. See 日本国 Nihon/Nippon Koku, (not Nihon Kuni, although you could imagine a missing の and read it Nihon no Kuni). 1 Quote
