What is Katakana?

A Japanese syllabary system used to write foreign words, mostly words derived from English

Katakana consists of approximately 45 characters, some of which are formed using the dakuten ゛ ゙ and handakuten ゜ ゚ signs, and also the prolongation ー sign.

Transliteration of some English words from Katakana to Romaji:
geemu 🎮
baagaa 🍔
aisukuriimu 🍨
konpyuutaa 🖥
furenchi furaizu 🍟
puraggu 🔌

What does "Katakana" mean?

It is a Japanese syllabary alphabet used to spell out foreign, now mostly English words. Consists of approx. 45 syllables, which can be further modified with accents "=b and °=p, prolongations (nigori) and smaller versions of vowels, ya-yu-yo and tsu. It doesn't allow for an exact transliteration, thus introducing a thick Japanese accent.
