How to write Anita in katakana
Japanese writes foreign names in katakana, one of its two alphabets, by sound rather than by spelling. Anita becomes アニタ, made of these parts:
| Katakana | Sound | Note |
|---|---|---|
| ア | a | |
| ニ | ni | |
| タ | ta |
When you write a full name, Japanese puts a middle dot between the first and last name, for example アニタ・スミス for Anita Smith.
