Best Answer

There is no direct equivalent between the English alphabet and written Japanese, despite that awful kanji "alphabet" that has found its way onto tattoo flash sheets in recent years.

Japanese has two phonetic syllabaries called kana, but the syllables do not correspond to English letters or sounds.

What is the seventh letter in the Chinese alphabet?

There is no alphabet in the Chinese language, unlike English or even Korean or Japanese (and even Korean and Japanese have no set order for their 'alphabet'), as Chinese language is simply written with different strokes put together. You might find websites that give you the way English alphabets might be written in Chinese, phonetic-wise, but that is only how we would pronounce English alphabets in Chinese phonetically, and not the Chinese alphabet. :)
