For a correct reading of this table refer to hiragana table.
To double a consonant use the letter -t ( ッ ) similar to tsu but written with a small letter (Es. yatta= ヤッタ, yappari=ヤッパリ ).
Attention: ya, yo, yu written with small letters form a single syllable with the consonant of the hiragana letter preceding, like j, ch and sh..... bi, di, gi, hi, ki, mi, ni, pi and ri with ya form the syllables
bya dya gya hya kya mya nya pya rya ( ビャ ヂャ ギャ ヒャ キャ ミャ ニャ ピャ リャ ), with yo form the syllables
byo dyo gyo hyo kyo myo nyo pyo ryo ( ビョ ヂョ ギョ ヒョ キョ ミョ ニョ ピョ リョ ), with yu form the syllables
byu dyu gyu hyu kyu myu nyu pyu ryu ( ビュ ヂュ ギュ ヒュ キュ ミュ ニュ ピュ リュ ).
The gray fonts are used only for imported words and have the only purpose to complete this table, but it is possible to find other syllables for imported words formed by a single letter hiragana (used like a consonant) and a vowel written with small letters (the ones in the row x),for example: di(ディ), du(ドゥ), zi(ズィ), fa (ファ), fe(フェ), fi(フィ), fo(フォ), fyu(フュ), ti(ティ), tu(トゥ), tsa(ツァ), tse(ツェ), tsi(ツィ), tso(ツォ), wo (ウォ), bye(ビェ), hye(ヒェ), mye(ミェ), nye(ニェ), rye(リェ), pye(ピェ).
