How to write Serenity in katakana
Japanese writes foreign names in katakana, one of its two alphabets, by sound rather than by spelling. Serenity becomes セレニティ, made of these parts:
| Katakana | Sound | Note |
|---|---|---|
| セ | se | |
| レ | re | |
| ニ | ni | |
| ティ | ti | two characters read as one sound |
When you write a full name, Japanese puts a middle dot between the first and last name, for example セレニティ・スミス for Serenity Smith.
