Write Japan - Katakana

Can you write your name in Japanese?

Welcome to the Katakana Writing Tutor
You will find a chart of the basic sounds found in Japanese, written in Roman script. Click on any of the boxes you'll see an example of how to write that character using the Japanese writing system called katakana. Remember: when writing in Japanese, strokes tend to go from left to right first, then from up to down.
