How to write Annette in katakana
Japanese writes foreign names in katakana, one of its two alphabets, by sound rather than by spelling. Annette becomes アネット, made of these parts:
| Katakana | Sound | Note |
|---|---|---|
| ア | a | |
| ネ | ne | |
| ッ | – | small tsu: a short pause that doubles the next sound |
| ト | to |
When you write a full name, Japanese puts a middle dot between the first and last name, for example アネット・スミス for Annette Smith.
