Everyone expects "dojo" because that is the way it is usually spelled in the

That comes down to whether it's a Japanese word or an English one that was
{shall we say} aquired from Japanese.  I wish I could remember the source
of the quote that says English follows other languages into dark alleys to
mug them for vocabulary.
