[Fox`Artec`DOS] you know, for regular words, there are Hiragana and Kanji alphabets
Komito`dS 590
[Fox`Artec`DOS] and Romaji is just a roman alphabet, used only for transcribtions
[Komito`dS] What's so special about Sonic then?
[Komito`dS] Why is that not a regular world?
[Komito`dS] world*
[Komito`dS] Ah bl
[Fox`Artec`DOS] cuz it's a name of a character
[Fox`Artec`DOS] you know, there's an adjective 'sonic' to describe something/someone that's fast
Komito`dS 680 FS gg
[Fox`Artec`DOS] and the name Sonic that's not to be translated in any other language
[Fox`Artec`DOS] so to make the pronunciation of it easier, they have Katakana
[Komito`dS] Then howcome it's translated to English as Sonic?
Fox`Artec`DOS 580 pts FS GG
[Fox`Artec`DOS] cuz we don't understand Katakana? :P
