How to write Diana in katakana
Japanese writes foreign names in katakana, one of its two alphabets, by sound rather than by spelling. Diana becomes ダイアナ, made of these parts:
| Katakana | Sound | Note |
|---|---|---|
| ダ | da | |
| イ | i | |
| ア | a | |
| ナ | na |
When you write a full name, Japanese puts a middle dot between the first and last name, for example ダイアナ・スミス for Diana Smith.
