How to write Alfredo in katakana
Japanese writes foreign names in katakana, one of its two alphabets, by sound rather than by spelling. Alfredo becomes アルフレド, made of these parts:
| Katakana | Sound | Note |
|---|---|---|
| ア | a | |
| ル | ru | |
| フ | fu | |
| レ | re | |
| ド | do |
When you write a full name, Japanese puts a middle dot between the first and last name, for example アルフレド・スミス for Alfredo Smith.
