Japanese Source Text
ヤ タ ノ カ カ ミ カ タ カ ム ナ カミ
Source Authority and Review Boundary
The source authority for this translation is the published Japanese entry for Katakamuna Uta 02. Its canonical text, structural analysis, and evidence labels govern any discrepancy. This English rendering preserves the transliteration, literal gloss, and interpretive layer separately; it does not expand the Japanese authority’s claims.
Publication boundary: this page does not reproduce private research archives or the full text of rights-unverified modern materials. Historical, linguistic, and comparative statements retain the certainty limits of the Japanese authority.
Review disclosure: linguistically reviewed by TENMON AI under owner authorization; it is not represented as human-reviewed.
Transliteration
Yata no Kakami — Katakamuna Kami
Literal Gloss
A mirror-field opens in eight directions. Fire-light is reflected in the water-body. At the center of that reflection, latent Katakamuna receives form and name and appears as Kami.
Interpretive English
Uta 02 describes the resonance of Uta 01 entering Yata no Kakami, an eight-directional field of reflection, and becoming manifest as Katakamuna Kami. The rendering follows the Japanese fire-water and reflection model; it does not assert that the compared sounds establish historical word origins.
Evidence Boundary
This English edition preserves the Japanese source’s distinction between canonical text, structural observation, TENMON interpretation, comparison, and unverified hypothesis. Sound correspondences are not presented as proof of historical etymology.
