Aiko_589 Brascus Unless I'm mistaken, there is a much easier way to write it. You do the symbol for "to". Then do a symbol for "ki" with a small "yo" diagonally bottom left. Equally exactly Tokyo. i am sorry but, that is foreigner pronounciation. kyo,kya,kyu,pya,pyu,pya and other one like it are one syllable each and are NOT to be pronounce wtih ANY i SOUND but KYO it is one syllable so toukyou is (syllable seperate by "/") to/u/kyo/u i really thought this woudnt need to be explain, but i guess overestimated. Take it easy. I did say I could be mistaken. I'm not an expert, I'm just saying what I thought was right. It's what I was taught in my Japanese class but again, I could be mistaken.

Aiko_589 the capital are just for emphasis. I have a suggestion. Capital letters imply shouting, and a lot of people take offense to that. If you want to put emphasis on a word without making it seem like you're yelling at someone, you might want to try using italics, or bolding the words you want to emphasize. I'm just trying to be helpful. Haha, now that just sounds snobby.
