Hey, Kusunose, thanks for fixing my typos. That's what happens when I work too fast, I guess... --Marnen Laibow-Koser (talk) 01:46, 29 Dec 2004 (UTC)

word "doitsu" come from Dutch! not German! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 83.26.145.14 (talk) 14:15, 16 September 2007 (UTC)

Needs references. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 149.169.61.6 (talk) 22:00, 17 October 2007 (UTC)

Looks good. German "Deutsch" [dɔɪtʃ], which would have become J. "doitsi" (where the "ts" sounds like English "ch"). The Dutch word "Duits" [dœyts] is a better candidate for the etymon of "doitsu". So I'm going to tag that text. --Thnidu (talk) 05:09, 13 March 2008 (UTC)

The term 'renji' has a long dash between 're' and 'nji', and therefor it would be better also to write the Roman characters 'Reinji' for the translation —Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.28.179.6 (talk) 19:07, 14 May 2008 (UTC)
