Yaho or Yao

edit

About the exact pronunciation of her name, I made an inquiry to the Museum of Modern Aomori Literature. Literally 八穂 is pronounced Yaho, but the Museum's answer was that Sachiko Sato, Kitabatake's personal friend and the author of 北畠八穂の物語 (北の街社, 2005.ISBN 4873731437), testifies that Kitabatake called herself Yao. --Jonokuchi 16:16, 5 July 2007 (UTC)Reply

The Japanese Wikipedia says ‘Yao’, is it a misjudgement of theirs? Siúnrá (talk) 21:48, 3 May 2010 (UTC)Reply
