How to write Veronica in katakana
Japanese writes foreign names in katakana, one of its two alphabets, by sound rather than by spelling. Veronica becomes ベロニカ, made of these parts:
| Katakana | Sound | Note |
|---|---|---|
| ベ | be | |
| ロ | ro | |
| ニ | ni | |
| カ | ka |
You may also see Veronica written ヴェロニカ (Veronika). Both are used; ベロニカ is the more common spelling.
When you write a full name, Japanese puts a middle dot between the first and last name, for example ベロニカ・スミス for Veronica Smith.
