Does anyone have more information about an eruption having happened today (16th June 2015)? I found this article: Mainichi English Article RodSloan (talk) 05:07, 16 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Name[edit]

Just wondering where the name "Asama-san" came from. I thought it was Asama-yama, and the Japanese wiki has that reading too. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 208.22.57.231 (talk) 01:13, 2 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Probably because the famous Mount Fuji is properly called Fuji-san in Japanese (despite what Stephen Fry said on Q.I., where he called it "Mount Fuji-yama", which is wrong on two counts) -- the choice of reading seems to vary between mountains... Dave-ros (talk) 17:18, 2 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Both Asama-yama and Asama-san are correct names in Japanese. Yama (山 chinese character) is the Japanese word for mountain. Mountains are also named with the honorific term -san (which is normally used after peoples names). Seanpbarry (talk) 02:25, 18 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Merge[edit]

I suggest that Asama Volcano Museum be merged into this article. Because Asama Volcano Museum closed in 2021. Also, the article is stub.--126.205.126.224 (talk) 05:41, 22 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
