Roman/kana character correlation tables
When you use a roman keyboard to enter kana, you can use the tables provided in this topic to find the roman characters that correspond to the kana you want to use. If you selected “Windows-like shortcuts” in Japanese preferences, use the Windows-like keyboard operation table. Otherwise, use the Standard keyboard operation table.
