(1) Hiragana is used to spell Japanese words only. (2) There is no Japanese word that ends with a consonant other than "n."

I do not believe that this is true, as 'iku' 'kuru' 'konnichiwa' 'deshita' and many other words end in letters other than "n".

That said, there is a Japanese word "isu" which means chair. That's spelled like this: いす。Also a a word spelled "tabe" which means 'eat' and all the words mentioned above.

If you're looking for the Japanese spelling (katakana) of "is" with a soft "s" sound, that will be: イッス。The Japanese spelling (katakana) of "is" with a hard "s/z" is: イッズ。

Finally, the Japanese equivalent of "is" is は or が。(ha or ga)

I've only been taking Japanese for a while, but if your question is "What is the Japanese word for "is"? then the answer is desu. Desu means to be, is, and are depending on the words around it in the sentence. The characters in desu are "De" and "Su". The katakana that is used above^ is Not the main alphabet, it is mainly used to represent other sounds from other languages than Japanese. I'd recommend hirigana for any characters you cannot just write in romaji.
