Aomurasaki zyouhanten shibori Not zyouhaten, zyouhanten is correct. Not sibori, shibori is correct. "ao" is blue, "murasaki" is purple, so, "aomurasaki" means bluish-purple. "zyou" originated from branch, it means stripe for MG's. "hanten" means a spot, so, "zyouhanten" means Striped and Spotted. "shibori" means dappled "aomurasaki zyouhanten shibori" is just explained what they look like: Bluish-purple, Striped, Spotted, and Dappled.

Not zyouhaten, zyouhanten is correct.
Not sibori, shibori is correct.

"ao" is blue,
"murasaki" is purple,
so, "aomurasaki" means bluish-purple.

"zyou" originated from branch, it means stripe for MG's.

"hanten" means a spot,
so, "zyouhanten" means Striped and Spotted.

"shibori" means dappled

"aomurasaki zyouhanten shibori" is just explained what they look like:

Bluish-purple, Striped, Spotted, and Dappled.
