Talk:Split Swamp
From Starfy Wiki
Name origin
I'm fairly sure 'ひきさきぬま' refers to how the lake/pond/swamp kind of resembles a tear in the landscape (not the liquid but like a tear after ripping something) but this is an educated guess. If you look at it from the Stage Select or the City, it forms a 'C' like shape. I think your translation may have been too literal, as according to here, 'hikisaki' means to tear up. It's not in my dictionary but ひきさく is and means the same thing. I guess it must be a different conjugation or something.
Shall I move this to something like Tear Lake? --Torchickens (talk) 16:02, 12 December 2013 (UTC)
