Vocabulary containing タチツテト:
In the words composed only of katakana from アイウエオ・カキクケコ・サシスセソ・タチツテト, there are no words that use チ and ツ. Therefore, such words will not appear in the quiz or the anime clips video in this lesson. However, as the course progresses, チ and ツ will appear in words in later lessons.

Ello
ta kind of looks like a shark lol
that’s right😂
also looks like “a”
I just realized this is much harder than Hiragana, アウト is spelled as “auto” in romaji, which made me think it was for “automatic” or “automobile” instead of “out”
auto is オート
Wait… if ウエスト is “waist” then what’s West?
西(にし)
Why are タコ and イカ spelled with katakana when both are Japanese words?
animals are often written in Katakana.
are people still using this site?
Yes, the number of people who takes quizzes increases every day.
