118.240.56.168: "by far the most used in western literature" (2008-05-12 13:49) [#4670]

I've played go for only 3 years, but I live in Japan, and yet I have never come across that term. The English books I read regularly use the term 'point' or 'distance.'

Perhaps it is presumptuous to say that 'ken' is the most used term in western literature.
