I realize I should not be spending too much time with romaji but I would like
to try and understand more about how to translate hiragana to romaji. I used a
translation web page and I noticed it sometimes adds spaces.

With the revised Hepburn system is this word translated like this: kisaten or
kisa ten? If the later then can someone explain why.

Similar question: そうじ

Should this appear as Sō ji or Sōji

Thanks

question
translation word-choice hiragana rōmaji
Is きっさてん one or two words in romaji?
きっさてん is commonly referred to as kissaten, see
[Kissaten](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kissaten "Kissaten"). Please note
that there are two S because of the small つ, which creates an extended /s/
sound.

For そうじ, I am assuming you mean the suru verb. I would write "sōji" since it
is all one word, not separate words.
