Japanese does not have an alphabet.
Japanese writing is syllabic whereas the English alphabet is segmental. What this means is that each basic Japanese syllable is given more than one English phoneme.
A couple of examples:
は - "ha" is made up of phonemes h and a
し - "shi" is made up of phonemes sh and i
Furthermore, Japanese also uses logograms from Chinese, which means one character can represent an entire word.
A couple more examples:
東 - ひがし "higashi" means east
朝 - あさ "asa" means morning
