Biratori-cho, Name of the bus stop in Ainu language

Names of the bus stops in Ainu language (within Biratori-cho : from Shinnitou to Ninarachimipu)

● Names of the bus stops in Ainu language were determined by the old names of places and rivers flowing nearby, and by translating their names in Japanese into Ainu language as precisely as possible.

● When we thought it difficult to translate the name into Ainu, the Japanese name was used as it was.

* 〇〇 (Name of Japanese bus stop), then attaching with the Ainu word “SEKORAIeUSI" means "A place called 〇〇".
