Foreign sovereigns are distinguished by adding to their names the words: isse or dai isse, the First, ni-se or dai ni-se the Second, etc. (se means "generation," "age"). Thus: King Edward VII. of England: Eikoku kokuo Edward dai sh'chi-se. The former shoguns are distinguished by ichi-dai, nidai, etc. (dai, "generation")--e. g., Tokugawa hachi-dai no shogun Yoshimune ko the eighth shogun of the family of Tokugawa, Prince Yoshimune.--First or upper class is: joto (no), second or middle class: chitto (no), third or lower class: kato (no); thus: joto no hito a gentleman of the upper classes; kato no hito a man of the...
