How to write Genesis in katakana
Japanese writes foreign names in katakana, one of its two alphabets, by sound rather than by spelling. Genesis becomes ジェネシス, made of these parts:
| Katakana | Sound | Note |
|---|---|---|
| ジェ | je | two characters read as one sound |
| ネ | ne | |
| シ | shi | |
| ス | su |
When you write a full name, Japanese puts a middle dot between the first and last name, for example ジェネシス・スミス for Genesis Smith.
