How to write Yaretzi in katakana
Japanese writes foreign names in katakana, one of its two alphabets, by sound rather than by spelling. Yaretzi becomes ヤレツィ, made of these parts:
| Katakana | Sound | Note |
|---|---|---|
| ヤ | ya | |
| レ | re | |
| ツ | tsu | |
| ィ | None |
When you write a full name, Japanese puts a middle dot between the first and last name, for example ヤレツィ・スミス for Yaretzi Smith.
