Answer 2

骨灰位的英文可能是

a cinerary casket of bone ashes.

Answer 3

Yes, " ash " can only mean 骨灰 but not 骨灰位.

" urn " can mean 骨灰甕. (" urn ", pronounce like " earn ".)

And I think we don't usually say " 骨灰位 " but more like " 骨灰靈位 " or just " 靈位 ". And since there is nothing like " 靈位 " in western culture, usually western people would say " soul " or " soul space " to describe " 靈位 ".

But since I'm a Chinese, I think " soul " is not the best word for this case. You may say " urn space " for better expression.
(That means, the ash should be put in an urn first, and then the place for putting the urn can called " urn space ".)

Answer 4

骨灰位: Ashes space

Ashes 係剩係解骨灰

Grave 係解墓穴

Answer 5

骨灰的英文︰
bone ash; (骨灰;磷酸鈣，不一定是人類的骨灰)
ashes of the dead; (死者的骨灰)
cremains (人類屍體火化後之骨灰)

更正︰(抱歉上面打錯了)骨灰位應該是columbarium niches (放骨灰甕的壁龕)壁龕就是一個像櫃子的東西，可以放骨灰的我在http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cremains找到這個字的。

我在http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Columbarium也找到骨灰位這個字。In some cases, columbaria are built into church structures. ......which houses a number of columbarium niches in the mausoleum built into the lower levels of the Cathedral.
