	Why is it written "Koume" instead of "Kōme" in the japanese names from games? -- [[User:RikkiKitsune\|<span style="color:#CFCDD0"><b>R<s>ikki</s></b></span>]][[User talk:RikkiKitsune\|<span style="color:#F9C152"><u>K</u>itsune</span>]] 20:41, 2 November 2009 (UTC)		Why is it written "Koume" instead of "Kōme" in the japanese names from games? -- [[User:RikkiKitsune\|<span style="color:#CFCDD0"><b>R<s>ikki</s></b></span>]][[User talk:RikkiKitsune\|<span style="color:#F9C152"><u>K</u>itsune</span>]] 20:41, 2 November 2009 (UTC)
			:Sometimes, "ou" means a long "o" sound; in this case, we romanize as "ō". Other times, "o" and "u" are actually separate syllables, so we use "ou". Koume is a case of the latter. It's Ko-ume, not Kō-me.—[[User:Urutapu\|Ｌｏｖｅはドコ？]] ([[User talk:Urutapu\|talk]] <small>•</small> [[Special:Contributions/Urutapu\|contribs]]) 00:38, 3 November 2009 (UTC)
