今日は。手伝ってお願いします。今、何か訳します。一人の男は宿屋に着いて、その宿屋の亭主は男の昔の友達。男の名前は頑丘（Gankyuu）。次は抜粋です：
"Will you be staying the night?" The man raised his head from its lowered position and turned to Gankyuu, smiling broadly. With that movement, Gankyuu was then able to see a slightly dirty girl standing before the man. Though he had nothing in his hand, the man seemed to have been doing something with the girl. He turned his back on the child and turned to Gankyuu, walking towards him with a swinging stride.
"You're Gankyuu, aren't you? What's up? It's been a while, hasn't it."
"It hasn't been that long. You got any vacancies?"
"Oh, I think we've got some."
The innkeeper was happy about something. He smiled with his whole face as he took the baggage from Gankyuu.
次の分は：「おいおい。言っておくが、そんなに良い部屋でなくていいんだぞ。とにかく寝られれば」

Hi there... another stoopit question from Kennin :emoji_flushed:
A man's yearly need for rice was measured in "koku " or "kōku" or "kokū" or "kōkū" until the Meiji revolution , I guess.
How's that in kanji please? And which hebonshiki rōmaji is correct please?
According to one of the sources I have (can't remember exactly which one, though) a "koku/kōku/kokū/kōkū" was also a unit of time, being approximately two hours, in the Edo Jidai.
Same question here:

"Kenjuu" is handgun.
"Teppou" is firearms in general, used chiefly to point to those used in the old days and not the modern types.
There are many terms used to refer to firearms.
I think "jyuu" is the most "generic" term for guns in general, especially handguns.
From the industrial perspective, firearms are collectively called "jyuu-ki."
Additional note:
"Factory" on a large scale (such as for building cars) is called "koujou."
"Factory" on a smaller scale (suggested but not necessarily true) is "seizou-jo."
So, a gun factory can be (1) jyuu-ki koujou or (2) jyuu-ki seizou-jo.
More casually, it can be called (1) jyuu no koujou or (2) jyuu no seizou-jo.
This all depends on the type of manufacturing operation you work in.
Hope it helps!
