How to write Alaina in katakana
Japanese writes foreign names in katakana, one of its two alphabets, by sound rather than by spelling. Alaina becomes アレイナ, made of these parts:
| Katakana | Sound | Note |
|---|---|---|
| ア | a | |
| レ | re | |
| イ | i | |
| ナ | na |
When you write a full name, Japanese puts a middle dot between the first and last name, for example アレイナ・スミス for Alaina Smith.
