ã, in hiragana, ã‚ in katakana, is one of the Japanese kana, which each represent one mora. Both represent [ki] and are derived from a simplification of the å¹¾ kanji. The hiragana character ã, like ã•, is drawn with the lower line connected when printing. When writing, the lines are separated (as in the picture to the right).
A dakuten may be added to the character; this transforms it into ㎠in hiragana, ギ in katakana, and gi in Hepburn romanization. The phonetic value also changes, to [ɡi] in initial, and varying between [ŋi] and [ɣi] in the middle of words.
A handakuten (゜) does not occur with ki in normal Japanese text, but it may be used by linguists to indicate a nasal pronunciation [ŋi].
