I've noticed people have a tendency to misspell several characters' names,
as well as the names of various special attacks used by some characters. 

Here's a short guide to some of the most commonly misspelled names. For
those of you who are unsure of their spelling, please take note of this.

I complied this list simply to help people who are having trouble with some
of these spellings...not to insult, offend, or to be a know-it-all. Don't
take offense at this list; it's meant as an aid, not as a criticism.

Note: For words containing the elongated "o" vowel, I use the "ou"
spelling. I do not mean to imply that this is the only correct spelling.
Use whichever "o" form you prefer. 

-Names-

Takeuchi (family name, most common use in disclaimers on Sailormoon fics.)
Takahashi (family name, most common use in disclaimers of Ranma/UY/MI
fics.)
Tatewaki (Kunou's personal name)
Nodoka (Ranma's mother's personal name)
Jadeite (Dark Kingdom general, Sailormoon)
Kunzite (Dark Kingdom general, Sailormoon)
Nephrite (Dark Kingdom general, Sailormoon) (note: this one *can* be
spelled differently)

-Attacks-

Kachuu Tenshin Amaguriken (Chestnut fist, one of Ranma's attacks)
Hiryuu Shouten Ha (Rising Dragon Ascension Defeat, one of Ranma's attacks)
Moukou Takabisha (Fierce Tiger Domineering, one of Ranma's attacks)
Bakusai Tenketsu (Breaking point technique)
Shishi Houkoudan (the most commonly misspelled special attack. Ryouga's
depression blast, "Lion's Roar Bullet")

Sparkling Wide Pressure (This one is obviously in English; it is included
because the pronunciation and romanization tend to be rather confusing,
leading people to refer to it as "Sparkling Vital Pressure".)

I like sword better. More personal weapon.
