You can't. Japanese doesn't have letters like English and similar languages do. It has a complex set of characters (the most commonly known of which is "kanji"). Each character makes a sound. For example, 火 makes the sound "ka". These sounds, or characters, then build a word. So for example (a wild example, but an off-hand one), 火術 would spell out "kajutsu", or "fire technique" (as drawn from an anime I'm into right now).

There are hundreds of characters just like this, which makes Japanese a rather difficult language to master!

Your rule of thumb when sounding out Japanese is the following vowels:

A = ah

I = e

U= uu

E = eh

O = oh

Then there is Tsu & Su which sounds like the word sue.

There is also syllables that have a "Y" following a consonant like kyo, or kya for example. The thing to remember is that "Y" sounds much the "I" does.

Japanese as in "the Japanese Language": 日本語 (Nihongo) Japanese as in "a Japanese person": 日本人 (Nihonjin) Japan (country name): 日本 (Nihon or Nippon) Nippon is used with some one you don't know & Nihon is used with friends or children.

There are several words that mean "you" in Japanese, and in most cases Japanese people prefer to address others by their name rather than "you." However, one common form of "you" is 'anata,' written in Japanese: あなた
