There are 46 basic hiragana and katakana syllables that are listed in charts. Memorizing these charts will allow one to transcribe all Japanese sounds. The romaji chart is included for pronunciation reference, with some syllables like "fu", "shi", "chi", and "tsu" romanized differently than their literal English translations to match pronunciation closer. The particle "wo" is also pronounced like "o" but sometimes written as "wo" in romanized form to distinguish it from the basic syllable "o".

*The syllables 「ふ」,「し」,「ち」, and 「つ」are romanized
as fu, shi, chi, and tsu, respectively, which is closer to the
English pronunciation.
**「を」is also pronounced as “o“, however, since this「を」is
only used as a particle, it is sometimes written and managed as
“ wo” in romanized distinctively from the basic syllable「お」.
