Talk:Fukoku kyōhei

强? 強?
I am confused with the designation of Simplified Chinese, Traditional Chinese, Shinjitai and Kyujitai in the namebox. How is 强 traditional and 強 simplified? As a matter of fact, it is the exact opposite way round in China. Are they interpreted as some form of variant Chinese character of each other, or are they placed the wrong way round? Yes, 國 is obviously traditional and 国 is simplified, but as for the "strengthen" character, I find that it is not quite the same. For example, "rape" is designated 强奸 in mainland China and Singapore, and 強姦 in Taiwan, Hong Kong, Macau and Japan (the characters 强奸/強姦 literally translate to "forced promiscuity", where 强/強 translates to "strong", "strengthen", or "force"). --  李博杰   | —Talk contribs email 10:55, 3 August 2009 (UTC)
