=== Diacritics === {{See also|Dakuten and handakuten|Yลon|Historical kana orthography}} Syllables beginning with the voiced consonants [g], [z], [d] and [b] are spelled with kana from the corresponding unvoiced columns (''k'', ''s'', ''t'' and ''h'') and the voicing mark, ''[[dakuten and handakuten|dakuten]]''. Syllables beginning with [p] are spelled with kana from the ''h'' column and the half-voicing mark, ''[[dakuten and handakuten|handakuten]]''. {| class="wikitable" |+Dakuten diacritic marks, [[hiragana]] (left) and [[katakana]] (right) ! !''g''<!--k--> !''z''<!--s--> !''d''<!--t--> !''b'' !''p''<!--h--> !''ng'' !''nz'' !''nd'' !''l''<!--r--> |- style="font-size:2em" !style="font-size:0.5em"|''a'' |[[Ka (kana)|{{nowrap|ใใฌ}}]] |[[Sa (kana)|{{nowrap|ใใถ}}]] |[[Ta (kana)|{{nowrap|ใ ใ}}]] |[[Ha (kana)|{{nowrap|ใฐใ}}]] |[[Ha (kana)|{{nowrap|ใฑใ}}]] |[[Ka (kana)|{{nowrap|ใใใซใ}}]] |[[Sa (kana)|{{nowrap|ใใใตใ}}]] |[[Ta (kana)|{{nowrap|ใใใฟใ}}]] |[[Ra (kana)|{{nowrap|ใใใฉใ}}]] |- style="font-size:2em" !style="font-size:0.5em"|''i'' |[[Ki (kana)|{{nowrap|ใใฎ}}]] |[[Shi (kana)|{{nowrap|ใใธ}}]] |[[Chi (kana)|{{nowrap|ใขใ}}]] |[[Hi (kana)|{{nowrap|ใณใ}}]] |[[Hi (kana)|{{nowrap|ใดใ}}]] |[[Ki (kana)|{{nowrap|ใใใญใ}}]] |[[Shi (kana)|{{nowrap|ใใใทใ}}]] |[[Chi (kana)|{{nowrap|ใกใใใ}}]] |[[Ri (kana)|{{nowrap|ใใใชใ}}]] |- style="font-size:2em" !style="font-size:0.5em"|''u'' |[[Ku (kana)|{{nowrap|ใใฐ}}]] |[[Su (kana)|{{nowrap|ใใบ}}]] |[[Tsu (kana)|{{nowrap|ใฅใ }}]] |[[Fu (kana)|{{nowrap|ใถใ}}]] |[[Fu (kana)|{{nowrap|ใทใ}}]] |[[Ku (kana)|{{nowrap|ใใใฏใ}}]] |[[Su (kana)|{{nowrap|ใใในใ}}]] |[[Tsu (kana)|{{nowrap|ใคใใใ}}]] |[[Ru (kana)|{{nowrap|ใใใซใ}}]] |- style="font-size:2em" !style="font-size:0.5em"|''e'' |[[Ke (kana)|{{nowrap|ใใฒ}}]] |[[Se (kana)|{{nowrap|ใใผ}}]] |[[Te (kana)|{{nowrap|ใงใ}}]] |[[He (kana)|{{nowrap|ในใ}}]] |[[He (kana)|{{nowrap|ใบใ}}]] |[[Ke (kana)|{{nowrap|ใใใฑใ}}]] |[[Se (kana)|{{nowrap|ใใใปใ}}]] |[[Te (kana)|{{nowrap|ใฆใใใ}}]] |[[Re (kana)|{{nowrap|ใใใฌใ}}]] |- style="font-size:2em" !style="font-size:0.5em"|''o'' |[[Ko (kana)|{{nowrap|ใใด}}]] |[[So (kana)|{{nowrap|ใใพ}}]] |[[To (kana)|{{nowrap|ใฉใ}}]] |[[Ho (kana)|{{nowrap|ใผใ}}]] |[[Ho (kana)|{{nowrap|ใฝใ}}]] |[[Ko (kana)|{{nowrap|ใใใณใ}}]] |[[So (kana)|{{nowrap|ใใใฝใ}}]] |[[To (kana)|{{nowrap|ใจใใใ}}]] |[[Ro (kana)|{{nowrap|ใใใญใ}}]] |} * Note that the ใใ, ใใ and the remaining entries in the two rightmost columns, though they exist, [[Dakuten and handakuten#Phonetic shifts|are not used in standard Japanese orthography]]. *''zi'', ''di'', and ''du'' are often transcribed into English as ''ji'', ''ji'', and ''zu'' instead, respectively, according to contemporary pronunciation. * Usually, [va], [vi], [vu], [ve], [vo] are represented respectively by ใ[ba], ใ[bi], ใ[bu], ใ[be], and ใ[bo], for example, in loanwords such as [[wikt:ใใคใชใชใณ|ใใคใชใชใณ]] (''baiorin'' "violin"), but (less usually) the distinction can be preserved by using [w-] with voicing marks or by using [wu] and a vowel kana, as in ใดใก(ใท), ใดใฃ(ใธ), ใด, ใดใง(ใน), and ใดใฉ(ใบ). Note that ใด did not have a JIS-encoded Hiragana form (ใ) until [[JIS X 0213]], meaning that many [[Shift JIS]] flavours (including [[Windows-31J|the Windows and HTML5 version]]) can only represent it as a katakana, although [[Unicode]] supports both.
