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