How to write Legend in katakana
Japanese writes foreign names in katakana, one of its two alphabets, by sound rather than by spelling. Legend becomes レジェンド, made of these parts:
| Katakana | Sound | Note |
|---|---|---|
| レ | re | |
| ジェ | je | two characters read as one sound |
| ン | n | n on its own |
| ド | do |
When you write a full name, Japanese puts a middle dot between the first and last name, for example レジェンド・スミス for Legend Smith.
