How to write Gale in katakana
Japanese writes foreign names in katakana, one of its two alphabets, by sound rather than by spelling. Gale becomes ゲイル, made of these parts:
| Katakana | Sound | Note |
|---|---|---|
| ゲ | ge | |
| イ | i | |
| ル | ru |
When you write a full name, Japanese puts a middle dot between the first and last name, for example ゲイル・スミス for Gale Smith.
