neutral  Julian Rippon: Yes, more context needed. If so, I would have thought a confidence level of 1 (Guess) would be more suitable than 4 (High) - could be misleading for the person asking the question... Just a thought.

agree  MariyaN (X): Then again, with no context and no Kanji writing provided - it's quite OK to me, because カワラ, if not a last or a geographical name, is translated as "tile".
