| lake storsj�n ストール湖 or ストゥールショーン湖 Explanation: ストール湖 or ストゥールショーン湖 ?? Sorry, I have no atlas to check up the lake name myself. Here I searched online to find two possible transliterations of the name. The one is read ストール, while the other ストールショーン. I don't know why the first example could be pronounced as abbreviated by omitting the last part "sj Reference: http://www.marbacka.net/ntk/arkiv/y20030518.html Reference: http://home9.highway.ne.jp/nordic/retrospect/articles/frosob... |

peer agreement (net): +1| lake storsj�n ストールション湖 Explanation: I haven't been able to locate any specifically convincing literature, but I speak Swedish (a little) and this is how I would put it in katakana. mulberryfield's answer 「ストール湖」is also possible, as 'sjon' in Swedish means Lake, however I would stlil leave the entire word as a proper noun (Storsjon literally means 'big lake'). the lake is famous for its Storksjon monster - a big like Loch Ness monster... -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 3 hrs 33 mins (2005-06-03 14:03:11 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Storsjon monster, of course. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 3 hrs 34 mins (2005-06-03 14:03:35 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- and a bit like, i meant to say. silly me. |

| lake storsj�n スツール湖 Explanation: 古くて恐縮ですが、平凡社の世界大百科事典｢世界地図･日本地図｣(1977年第9版第5刷)によれば、スウェーデンのエステルスンド近傍にあるのはスツール湖で、ストール湖はノルウェー域内のグロンマ河上流近くの所在となっています。 |
