:Sometimes, "ou" means a long "o" sound; in this case, we romanize as "ō". Other times, "o" and "u" are actually separate syllables, so we use "ou". Koume is a case of the latter. It's Ko-ume, not Kō-me.—[[User:Urutapu|Loveはドコ?]] ([[User talk:Urutapu|talk]] <small>•</small> [[Special:Contributions/Urutapu|contribs]]) 00:38, 3 November 2009 (UTC)

Sometimes, "ou" means a long "o" sound; in this case, we romanize as "ō". Other times, "o" and "u" are actually separate syllables, so we use "ou". Koume is a case of the latter. It's Ko-ume, not Kō-me.—Loveはドコ? (talk contribs) 00:38, 3 November 2009 (UTC)
