Ro Sôsetsu was a [[Nagasaki]]-based [[Chinese language]] [[Nagasaki interpreters|interpreter]]. He is known for his role in making Chinese texts on European sciences available to Japanese scholars, and for his own writings, such as ''Nagasaki senmin den'' ("Lives of Past People of Nagasaki"), which was later edited and expanded by his son [[Ro Senri]]<!--盧千里-->.
