[edit] Literal translation of Yakitori
I changed the literal translation from grilled chicken to grilled bird.
Although yakitori could be described as typically grilled chicken, that is not the literal translation. Tori written with 鶏 does specifically mean chicken, but yakitori (焼き鳥) is written with the character 鳥, which simply means bird. Erikku 02:17, 24 February 2006 (UTC)
Lol, but any Japanese person will say it's always chicken. If anything, one should emphasize that it's more like burned chicken fat! 16:27, 22 February 2008 (UTC) Monkey —Preceding unsigned comment added by 207.228.52.221 (talk)

[edit] Kushiyaki?
What's the relationship between yakitori and kushiyaki? Is some kind of explanation needed? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 158.73.247.15 (talk) 15:25, 4 June 2009 (UTC) I lived in Tokyo for 10 years and in Tokyo at least "kushi-yaki" refers specifically to deep fried morsels placed on skewers, as opposed to "yaki-tori" which always refers to unbreaded, skewered meat cooked over fire or charcoal. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 173.61.83.35 (talk) 03:48, 4 December 2011 (UTC)
