Sanrio Wiki has moved from ShoutWiki. Account creation is closed to prevent spam on a company typically seen in the West for its children's media. If you want an account here (or to activate your old ShoutWiki account here) it is suggested (though you have free will) get your parent/guardian's permission to use the Internet, and contact EvieMelody (X, formally Twitter) re: account creation or article requests.
Note: Sanrio Wiki is not official and is not run by Sanrio Co., Ltd. or related parties. This wiki uses some low resolution content (images, short sound clips) to describe articles, under fair use (for the purpose of illustrating and describing an article only). All rights are reserved by Sanrio and related parties.
Sometimes this wiki may be a little slow, other times it is faster. This is likely server related. On such days, you may want to stockpile edits offline for later.

Romanization
Unless they themself spell their name like that, you should add an apostraphe to indicate the correct pronounciation.--TauDudeBlobber (talk) 21:51, 3 May 2024 (UTC)
- Thanks Tau ^^. Yes it might be a better clarification of the mōra right? I'm not sure what the correct pronunciation is at present. From EvieMelody ✿ 01:18, 5 May 2024 (UTC)
- Actually, it's not just about mora divisions. The Japanese moriac nasal ン is commonly explained as being pronounced like English "n", but it's pronounciation is strongly variant by context and in some cases speaker. Even linguistic papers have incorrect information on the pronounciation of this sound. When the next sound is a vowel, it takes a very liquid sound that's very distinct from English "n". It also can result in what sounds like a "y" or "w" before the vowel, depending on the vowel and the speaker. "i" and "e" can sound more like "yi" and "ye", and "u" and "o" can sound more like "wu" and "wo".--TauDudeBlobber (talk) 07:58, 5 May 2024 (UTC)
