Katakana Chart | カタカナ

カタカナKatakana (wiki) is Japanese alphabet which has 46 letters. Katakana can be used for words which come from foreign countries. For example, basketball = バスケットボール, coffee = コーヒー, hotel = ホテル. For example, Tea has Japanese word “おちゃ” (ocha) , so Hiragana is used. but Coffee does not have the Japanese word because it came from overseas recently, so in that case, Katakana can be used like コーヒー (coffee-> koohii->コーヒー).
