Guide to the Japanese Language in the Animated "Spirited Away"
The Japanese title is "Sen to Chihiro no Kamikakushi." "Sen" (千) and "Chihiro" (千尋) are the names. "To" (と) is a particle which connects nouns. It translates into "and." "Kami (神)" means "god" or "spirit," and "kakushi (隠し)" is the noun form of the verb "kakusu (to hide)." "Kamikakushi" (神隠し) means "hidden by spirits," hence the English wordplay of "Spirited Away."
