Did you know?

  • If you were to write 'Caroline' using Kanji, you could create 'ateji', where different characters are chosen solely for their sounds. For example, you could select characters that mean 'beautiful' or 'jasmine' to match the sounds of the name.
  • Because Japanese lacks a native 'L' sound, the 'L' in 'Caroline' is replaced by the Japanese 'r' sound, which is a flap of the tongue similar to the 'tt' in the English word 'better'.
  • When writing キャロライン in a vertical column, the long vowel mark ー turns into a vertical line to maintain the flow of the text.
