In Japanese, the invasions of Korea are generally known respectively as ''Bunroku no eki'' 文禄の役 and ''Keichô no eki'' 慶長の役 after the ''[[nengo|nengô]]'', or imperial reign eras, in which they occurred. They are sometimes also referred to as the Pottery Wars (焼物戦争, ''yakimono sensô'') or Teabowl Wars (茶碗戦争, ''chawan sensô'') when emphasizing the role they played in bringing Korean ceramic technologies and styles to Japan.<ref>Gallery labels, [[Shokoshuseikan|Shôkoshûseikan]], Kagoshima.</ref>
    
The invasions are named similarly in Korean, where they are known collectively as ''Imjin Waeran'', or individually as the Imjin and Jeongyu Waeran, Imjin 壬辰 and Jeongyu 丁酉 being the [[Japanese_calendar#Cyclic_Dates|cyclical year designations]], respectively, corresponding roughly with 1592 and 1597.
