Description

Today, the katakana syllabary is primarily used to write non-Chinese foreign loan words or words that have some kind of non-Japanese derivation. They are also used in many onomatoepoeic expressions, as can be found in manga. Moreover, they are sometimes used to write words for which the kanji are complex or uncommon.
