Template:Ja



This template is used to handle either the presentation of the original Japanese and English translation of text alongside romaji or the presentation of the original Japanese text and a romanised version alongside a translation. This is useful for names of people, characters, songs, events, items, etc.

Call as MainText. Don't worry about the English or Romaji when they match the main text anyway (see samples).

Samples:

For romanised text as the primary type (eg. song titles):
 * Romaji =
 * Romaji = (for English words written using Japanese characters, typically katakana)
 * Romaji = (for things which are officially written in romaji, don't worry about the Japanese)

For translated text as the primary type (eg. item names):
 * English =
 * English = (for English words written using Japanese characters. also use this format --not one using the 'Rom.' field-- when the original text is officially written in romaji)
