craftsperson of superior skill/contemporary master craftsman Explanation: I'm 99% certain that the official title for 現代の名工 is "contemporary master craftsman". See link below; about 50 hits for this. 卓越技能者 appears not to be an official title as such (see 2nd url): 平成13年度の卓越した技能者(通称「現代の名工」)の表彰予定者149名が Reference: http://www.okuma.co.jp/english/news/others/051215.html Reference: http://www.mhlw.go.jp/houdou/0111/h1121-6.html |
