How to write Lamont in katakana
Japanese writes foreign names in katakana, one of its two alphabets, by sound rather than by spelling. Lamont becomes ラモント, made of these parts:
| Katakana | Sound | Note |
|---|---|---|
| ラ | ra | |
| モ | mo | |
| ン | n | n on its own |
| ト | to |
When you write a full name, Japanese puts a middle dot between the first and last name, for example ラモント・スミス for Lamont Smith.
