English Title

[edit]

伯爵 can be translated as "Earl" or "Count". ANN choose the latter, but the Oxford English Dictionary says Earl in the correct title for an English nobelman of that rank (Count is the foreign - i.e. Continental - equivalent). So unless Ashenbert is from outside England, "Earl and Fairy" is the better translation. Simon Brady (talk) 17:54, 6 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
