ok im doing an manga (japanese comic). and i want to be able to use a japanese style. Example - have you ever watched an anime or read a manga and noticed that the building's names are written in japanese. but i'm english and not capable yet to write japanese. so i installed files on my computer to write japanese for me. i also written a couple of words in japanese as a test.
えぴそで1-あふぉrてっぃんごfてぃんgsとこめ - translates to Episode 1-A fortelling of things to come
look at the last section. the letters are g s individually. is this normal? i don't think this is write. is this how the japanese write it. for example - i set up one of my games to read as japanese subtitles, so the subtitles are written in japanese. i don't see any letters as individuals. please help - am i doing something wrong.

Let's see... you do have Japanese type however you are tying English words in a Japanese font expecting them to be the Japanese equivalent. You can't do that. In Japanese there are three writing systems: Kanji, hiragana and katakana. For foreign words Katakana is used. カタカナ <-----the word "katakana" in the Japanese style of katakana.

Japanese is a language that uses syllables. So two constants will not appear as you can see with g and s. ん takes on the sound "N" like in the word no. Everything else is going to Have a vowel after it.

ga, gi, gu, ge, go or sa, shi, su, se, so.

I recommend learning the hiragana and katakana forms of Japanese. You can learn them in a week no problem. The Kanji will take much longer. I have to express to you again though that though you just type English words and Japanese symbols are produced you are not making Japanese words just gibberish. You have to learn the Japanese language in some form to use it properly.

Look for other translators, maybe learn basic sentence structure.
