Footnote: | These Man'yōgana originally represented morae with one of two different vowel sounds, which merged in later pronunciation. |
と, in hiragana, or ト in katakana, is one of the Japanese kana, each of which represents one mora. Both represent the sound pronounced as /[to]/, and when written with dakuten represent the sound pronounced as /[do]/. In the Ainu language, the katakana ト can be written with a handakuten (which can be entered in a computer as either one character (ト゚) or two combined characters (ト゜) to represent the sound pronounced as /[tu]/, and is interchangeable with the katakana ツ゚.
