西院駅：2023年6月12日（月）

京福電気鉄道嵐山本線（通称：嵐電）と阪急京都本線の駅で，京都市にある駅である。この駅名は，「西院駅」と書くが，嵐電では「さいえき」といい，阪急では「さいいんえき」と読む。この地域は，もともと淳和院（別称：西院）があった地域であり，平安時代から鎌倉時代にかけて「さいゐん」と読まれていたというが，戦国時代から江戸時代にかけて「さい」とも読まれるようになったという。近代になって，「さいいん」が自治体等で推奨されたというが，正直なところ，現在，どちらが正式なのかよく分からない。このほかに，京都市内では七条の読み方も「ななじょう」「しちじょう」の二通りがあり，公共交通の間でも読み方が統一されていない。

Saiin(Sai) Station：June 12th(Monday)

Saiin(Sai)Station is a railway station located in Kyoto City, serving the Keifuku Electric Railroad Arashiyama Main Line (commonly known as the Randen) and the Hankyu Kyoto Main Line. Although the station name is written as "西院駅" , it is pronounced as "Sai-eki" on the Randen and "Saiin-eki" on the Hankyu line. This area originally housed Junna-in (also known as Saiin), and during the Heian period to the Kamakura period, it was pronounced as "Saiin." However, during the Sengoku period to the Edo period, it also came to be pronounced as "Sai." In modern times, "Saiin" was recommended by local authorities, but honestly, it is not clear which pronunciation is official at present. Additionally, within Kyoto City, there are two different pronunciations for 七条: "Nanajo" and "Shichijo," and even in public transportation, the pronunciation has not been standardized.
