                       The    word Ko     is  occasionally  used   in  the  place   of
                  tsukuru,  but   it  is  generally  applied  in connection with  the
                  painting rather than the manufacture of the ware.

                       Tsukuru   and   sei  are sometimes found     in  combination;
                  when   this  is the case they are translated as following     after
                  the name    of the maker instead     of preceding    it, and  zo  is
                  used in place of tsukuru.
