    The characters 左奥 in Japanese mean something akin to “in the back, on the left”. 奥 (“oku”) usually refers to the innermost corner or area of a physical space. It’s also the root of one of the most common Japanese words for “wife”…i.e., “Mrs. In-the-deepest corner of the home” would be a rough but literal translation.

    Chinese doesn’t seem to use this character. The chinese translation used the term “左后方” which also means “in the back, on the left”.

    I have no clue what 奥 means in Chinese.

    Figured out at least one way how 奥 is used in Chinese.
    Which is to say, as a character used to represent a sound, often used for pronouncing foreign, non-Chinese words.

    This character is used for the sound “Ao” (or, in Engrish, “Ow!”)
    Examples:
    奥林匹克 – Ao lin pi ke (Olympic)
    奥巴马 – Ao Ba Ma (Obama) (“OW” ba ma?)
    etc.

    Whoops, I strayed off course mateys. Back to the topic at hand, yarrrr…

    Must have been the inspiration for that line in Led Zeppelin’s “Ramble On”:

    “Was in the darkest depths of Mordor, I met a girl so fair.”
