Konnichiwa Sayaka-san, Keni-san I was listening to Lesson 1.1 and I noticed Kenny said I am from England as "Igirisu kara ki mashita" Before I had thought "Igirisu" meant "U.K" :s So being Scottish I was wondering can you tell me the word for Scotland? Ookami-kun xx

Scotland should be said sukottorando. スコットランド So it's said the same, but Japanese pronunciation.

Konnichiwa! Both England and the UK are called *IGIRISU* in Japanese - meaning that the term can be used interchangeably. -Sayaka :P
