Hi. There's a simple grammatical point that has me stumped today.

千と千尋の神隠し ... translations tell me that the の refers back to 千尋 only. How would you rephrase this if, say, there was two persons that were 神隠し? Or is the phrase ambiguous as is?

-slightly muddled

It's ambiguous. "千 And 千尋’s Disappearance," which you could read both ways in English. "The Disappearance of Both 千 and 千尋" could be 千と千尋との神隠し.

Thanks!

I'll have to pick up a grammar.
