How to write Stella in katakana
Japanese writes foreign names in katakana, one of its two alphabets, by sound rather than by spelling. Stella becomes ステラ, made of these parts:
| Katakana | Sound | Note |
|---|---|---|
| ス | su | |
| テ | te | |
| ラ | ra |
When you write a full name, Japanese puts a middle dot between the first and last name, for example ステラ・スミス for Stella Smith.
