Katakana-YA YU YO

In the last lesson, we went over ラリルレロ — a straightforward lesson without anything to trick you. The Y consonant is even easier because there are only three of them.

YA YU YO-ヤユヨ

• ヤ-→ ya (ike “ya”)
• ユ → yu (like “you”)
• ヨ → yo (like “yo”)

Nothing to look out for

Fortunately there isn’t anything crazy to look out for in this lesson. No look-alike characters, no special pronunciation.

Recall Practice

Time to practice! Just like in all lessons, do this as many times as it takes for you to feel like you can confidently select the correct answer without guessing.

This recall brings back ハヒフヘホ to combine with ヤユヨ.

Good job! Continue practicing until you can confidently identify each character with ease. Click the buttons below to restart the practice (challenge yourself with inverted and challenge mode).

Once this practice feels easy to you it’s time to take a break and then move on to the next lesson.
