横浜って神奈川県ですか？って英語でなんて言うの？

Is Yokohama in Kanagawa Prefecture? This is a very straightforward question to ask. The word "is" is the present tense form of the verb "be". So the question asks if currently, right now, Yokohama is in Kanagawa prefecture.

Japan has prefectures, France has departments, the UK has counties and the United States has states and counties, Australia has states and territories, China has provinces. When you are explaining, it depends to whom you are explaining how best to explain it. For someone from the UK for example, you could say: "Japan is made up of prefectures rather than counties and Yokohoma is in Kanagawa prefecture."

Both sentences are two ways to say the same thing. The key word here is "district". If you do not know your audience, "district" is a more general term. In North America, we do not say prefecture. The USA is divided into states and counties. Canada is divided into provinces and territories. In the UK it is divided into counties. In all, most every English speaking country has different terms to refer to political boundaries. Using "district" is a more neutral term you can use if you do not know your audience, or know how they call their political districts.

In UK they are called Counties In America they are called States and Counties In Canada they are called Provinces and Territories If you were not sure what divisions of land are called in the country of which you're speaking, the word 'district' would be understood. 'In which district of the UK is Harrowgate?'
