| Traditional ones which were in a flag shape were called hatajirushi and others which were not in a flag shape were regarded as umajirushi, and in later years, o-umajirushi (large umajirushi) were distinguished from ko-umajirushi (small umajirushi); additionally, hatajirushi whose size was equivalent to o-umajirushi were called matoi. |
以前の旗の形をしたものは旗印､旗の形ではないものを馬印とし、更に時代を下ると馬印は大馬印と小馬印に分かれた(大馬印に比例する旗印は纏と表記される)。 |
