How to write Kali in katakana
Japanese writes foreign names in katakana, one of its two alphabets, by sound rather than by spelling. Kali becomes カリ, made of these parts:
| Katakana | Sound | Note |
|---|---|---|
| カ | ka | |
| リ | ri |
When you write a full name, Japanese puts a middle dot between the first and last name, for example カリ・スミス for Kali Smith.
