Romaji

When you type in Japanese, are you using hiragana input, or romaji input?

Writing in romaji isn't good for Japanese learners to always do, because they use it as a crutch instead of learning to use kana and kanji.

I have a book full of haiku in romaji and translation. I wish they included the original Japanese characters as well.

I've switched off romaji in Duolingo.

The romaji of the word ローマ字 is “rōmaji”.

The katakana and the hiragana are syllabic forms of writing derived from Chinese characters, while the romaji are the letters used in writing most European languages.

For example, in Japanese advertisements sexy and my house often appear in romaji, making the underlying concepts of eroticism and private ownership more exotic.

Today people ordinarily use kana-kanji conversion systems for inputting Japanese text. Because many of them can touch-type the romajis for the kanas, the O-code with kana-kanji conversion is more accessible.
