Shorin Ryuu Posted June 20, 2003 Share Posted June 20, 2003 IF it was actually Gojushiho Sho, I am remionded of the many mispronunciations heard in american karate: Those are always very humurous. As someone who is learning Japanese, it is even more so. There's only one gojushiho though, but i can see where gojushiho would sound like gisen sho.

Sho-ju Posted June 20, 2003 Author Share Posted June 20, 2003 You know what's really funny...I learn Shotokan from a Scottish Sensei that was once under Enoda(?) in the UK. My Japanese has a Scottish flavor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My Japanese has a Scottish flavor. A direct quote from Okazaki Sensei at my Sandan grading: "Your Japanese reminds me of a Japanese person imitating how poorly an American speaks Japanese."

Gloi Posted June 20, 2003 Share Posted June 20, 2003 Although there is only one version of gojushiho in shorin ryu in shotokan there are two general versions of Gojushiho: Gojushiho Sho and Gojushiho Dai. Gojushiho Dai is the original version, while Gojushiho Sho was introduced by Yasutsume Itosu. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sho-ju Posted June 20, 2003 Author Share Posted June 20, 2003 It's not Gojushiho it is a different kata. A home made one at that... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
