How to write Curt in katakana
Japanese writes foreign names in katakana, one of its two alphabets, by sound rather than by spelling. Curt becomes カート, made of these parts:
| Katakana | Sound | Note |
|---|---|---|
| カ | ka | |
| ー | – | long vowel mark: hold the sound before it a little longer |
| ト | to |
When you write a full name, Japanese puts a middle dot between the first and last name, for example カート・スミス for Curt Smith.
