Note on Names Ihave observed the common practice of transliterating Japanese using the modi ed Hepburn system and Arabic using the IJMES system.Common place names and words that appear in a standard Englishlanguage dictionary have been rendered without macrons (Tokyo rather than T ky , Quran rather than Qur n), except when citing Arabic-or Japanese-language publications.Japanese family names usually appear before personal names, except when referring to individuals who customarily use a di erent order.
