Article renamed

[edit]

I've renamed this article from Ryukyuan songs to Ryūkyūan songs in accordance with the guidelines in the Manual of Style for Japanese articles. Bobo12345 12:02, 13 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

There was "Kacharsee".. in fact is Kachashii. I replaced it.

There are still a lot of incorrect informations, such as "eisá" as a kind of song. Eisá is not a song, it's more a druming dancing than just a song. On the item "Genre" should be only two: minyô (popular songs) and koten (classical songs). —Preceding unsigned comment added by 189.102.108.108 (talk) 17:41, 8 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I replaced "kacharsee" (in fact, who wrote this should be thinking about "kachashii", not kacharsee) and "eisa" (wich, the first is a kind of minyo music and the second is a big druming/dancing performance, not a kind of music) for the two kinds of music that are traditional ryukyuan music: koten and minyo. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 189.102.108.108 (talk) 17:50, 8 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Actually "kacharsee" is a term often used to describe that kind of music from Okinawa. Google the word and you will get many headings. (IE, Shokichi Kina, "Crazy Kacharsee") Perhaps "kachaashii" is a katakanization of a word originally from an Okinawan language? (カチャーシー)? The article has been nicely revamped otherwise. Well done.KogeJoe (talk) 05:15, 7 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Additionally, I started a similar conversation in the talk page at the Kachāshī discussion page. Where does this "Kachāshī" come from?KogeJoe (talk) 05:15, 7 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Attestation needed

[edit]

I removed the following text fragment added by Kwékwlos (talk · contribs)[1]

|[[Okinawan language|Okinawan]]: ''Rūchū ungaku''

Attestation is needed to keep this. Also note that this article is not about a subgenre of Okinawan music but about an abstract entity, a product of comparative studies, which is rarely envisoned by laymen. --Nanshu (talk) 03:55, 29 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
