Refs: | Prog: "ぶつぜん【仏前】 〔香典〕incense money; a condolatory offering 父上のご仏前にこれをお供えください Please place this before the memorial tablet of your deceased [late] father." gg5: "御仏前 offering placed on a Buddhist altar" |
|
Comments: | I don't think translating 仏前 as "Buddhist temple" in 仏前 結婚 ("Buddhist wedding" in GG5) is really correct. Since "before God" is used similarly in English e.g. "a marriage entered into before God", I think the literal "before the Buddha" should be fine? |

Comments: | I feel the "before the .." is being a bit 直訳. The GG5 examples are more general. I think the mortuary tablet mention is because it's place on the altar. |
