    Hey guys!

    I was just wondering how I would go about writing my username in Katakana (haven’t learned it yet; I’m on the numbers chapter of season 2). I changed my Windows display language (as well as my iPad and iPod Touch’s language as well) to Japanese to try to really immerse myself in the language. I want to change my login name to be my username in Katakana, but I’m not quite sure which kana to use.

    All help is appreciated,
    ~Dormoxx

    (PS: I tried just typing in the sounds I though that would make it up and got this: ドルマクツ [Dorumakutsu]. Would that be right? Thanks again. >.<)

    The xx is the x in fox, right? The Japanese use kusu for that sound. There are a couple of ways to spell it.

    ドルマクス
    ドーマクス

    I’d personally go with ドーマクス since ドルマクス can be interpreted as dolmoxx

    If you’re going to change your computer display language, start learning katakana. A lot of computer-related terms are English loan words, so being able to read katakana will surely help you navigate a little better :) I learned them straight after hiragana, well before I got to the specific lesson.

    @Mousefire: Thanks for the help, I really appreciated it! ^_^

    @Mister: Yeah, I’m at the last chapter (before the review) of Season Two; So I’ll definitely be starting katakana soon.(:

    The Kanji part of it is going to make it a pain in the butt when I want to change something system-wise, hehe.
