Katakana

Hmmm, my internet crashed in the middle of my first try of this post. I have to start over now.

With these symbols, the same rules apply as Hiragana (Learn Hiragana first if you havn't). Although, you can do some sneaky stuff with Katakana.

Also if you cannot read these symbols, click the photo enlargen it.

First up in the sneakies: How to make Ti and Tu, remember now, there is only Chi and Tsu in the place of these, so how would you make these symbols appear? Easy, Add a small smybol of the Katakana I or Yu to the symbol Te. Also if u remember correctly there is a Tsu, in Katakana there is a way to change it to Tse. Can you guess what it is? It's Tsu+ small E!

Hmmm, if there is no Ti or Tu without special measures, then, wouldn't there not be Di and Du without special measures also? Te+Chong chongs+I or Yu= Di or Du.

More, eh? Well then! Shi+ small E= She. Chi+ small E= Che. Ji (Can you remember how to make Ji?)+small E= Je.

A few more. Fu+ small A I E or O= Fa Fi Fe Fo.

Last rule! The symbol U can have chong chongs in Katakana! but if u add chong chongs, you must add a small A I E or O, this will give you a Va Vi Ve or Vo!

Edit: Forgot something. A "-" can be used to emphasise a section of your writing, if you havn't go to the Megatokyo link in the top left corner. See how Megatokyo is spelt in Hiragana? See how the small Yo follows a normal Ki? See howthey are in two -. This means when you're reading this, to pause slightly, just like you would pause at a comma in the english language. Also, I neglected to mention in the Hiragana section, that if you are to put a small Ya Yu Yo after a syllable that ends with I, it will become a "The symbols consenent"Ya/Yu/Yo. This is For both Hiragana and Katakana.

All these rules only apply to Katakana. So be careful not to make a fool out of yourself in Japanese writing.
