But suddenly dozens of Ryuta Uehara's and Sayuri's
Ueharas and Sayuris
You think? I didn't like the way that looked, and sticking the 's'
at the
end could lead to the possible confusion that that's how you spell
the name.
Don't worry about that, no Japanese words can end in 's', the only
consinant that a Japanese word can end in is 'n'. The langage is based
on a system like this:
Hirigana or Katikana, <The two basic Japanese letter systems. can
either be, a vowel, a consinant and a vowel [in that order] or 'n'.
Many times a letter can be silent and omitted from a word, most often
the vowels 'u' and 'o'. Like Riyouga, Ryoga. The 'i' is usually only
omitted when coupled with the letter 'y'.
I can't think of any time where this situation occurs with the letter 's'
though.
Hope this helps a little in future works.
Ja ne.
