How to write Rogelio in katakana
Japanese writes foreign names in katakana, one of its two alphabets, by sound rather than by spelling. Rogelio becomes ロヘリオ, made of these parts:
| Katakana | Sound | Note |
|---|---|---|
| ロ | ro | |
| ヘ | he | |
| リ | ri | |
| オ | o |
When you write a full name, Japanese puts a middle dot between the first and last name, for example ロヘリオ・スミス for Rogelio Smith.
