How to write Brooke in katakana
Japanese writes foreign names in katakana, one of its two alphabets, by sound rather than by spelling. Brooke becomes ブルック, made of these parts:
| Katakana | Sound | Note |
|---|---|---|
| ブ | bu | |
| ル | ru | |
| ッ | – | small tsu: a short pause that doubles the next sound |
| ク | ku |
When you write a full name, Japanese puts a middle dot between the first and last name, for example ブルック・スミス for Brooke Smith.
