-//         * Spellout rules for Japanese.  In Japanese, there really isn't any
-//         * distinction between a number written out in digits and a number
-//         * written out in words: the ideographic characters are both digits
-//         * and words.  This rule set provides two variants:  %traditional
-//         * uses the traditional CJK numerals (which are also used in China
-//         * and Korea).  %financial uses alternate ideographs for many numbers
-//         * that are harder to alter than the traditional numerals (one could
-//         * fairly easily change a one to
-//         * a three just by adding two strokes, for example).  This is also done in
-//         * the other countries using Chinese idographs, but different ideographs
-//         * are used in those places.

+    // In Japanese, there really isn't any distinction between a number written 
+    // out in digits and a number written out in words. The kanji are both
+    // digits and words. This rule set provides two variants:  
+    //
+    //  %traditional
+    //      Traditional CJK numerals for everyday usage.
+    //
+    //  %financial
+    //      Alternate numerals that are harder to alter than the traditional 
+    //      numerals to prevent fraud (e.g. changing a traditional one to a
+    //      three by adding two strokes). Additionally, items that are usually 
+    //      dropped or shortened in the traditional form are supplied in full 
+    //      (e.g. 128 is 1 x 100, 2 x 10, 8 instead of just 100, 2 x 10, 8).
+    //
+    // Note that the Japanese spell out rules, although similar, are different 
+    // to those for Chinese. For instance, Japanese omits powers of ten which
+    // are zero, however in Chinese they are included.
