Notes

  1. ^ This unaccented pronunciation applies to the bridge's name, the placename, and the elliptical name of Hitotsubashi University, all in Tokyo, reflecting a trend of unaccented placenames in Tokyo. The original common noun this name derives from, 一つ橋, meaning "single-log bridge", is pronounced with an accent as [çi̥.to.tsɯꜜ.ba.ɕi].
