The contents of the Shino (glaze) page were merged into Shino ware on 1 April 2018. For the contribution history and old versions of the redirected page, please see its history; for the discussion at that location, see its talk page.
I just saw this after writing an article specifically on the Shino glaze. Should these articles be combined somehow? What does the suffix "yaki" mean?

Hi. They probably should be merged at this point, as the glaze is a part of "Shino-yaki." PS: However, given the fact that the other article is much longer, this one will need much more work before that can be reasonably done.
"-yaki" is a suffix meaning "burn." It is appended to types of pottery and can be translated "ware", "pottery", and occasionally "porcelain."
I am now moving this article to "Shino ware" because the term "-yaki" is not common among English speakers, just specialists.
