FAQ
Can I use only Roman characters to search Japanese language materials?
By placing a "$" symbol in front of Roman characters used for search values, you can convert the Roman characters into Katakana characters to perform a search.
- Writing in the official Kana romanization system and the Hepburn system is supported.
- The Roman alphabet doesn't correspond to the long vowel character. For example, please enter "$kiwado" not "$kiwado" when you want to get the same result in the "キーワード."
- _ means a blank.
Entry example | Search results | Example of hit |
---|---|---|
$genji | It will be shown the same search results in the keywords "ゲンジ" (genji in katakana). | 源氏世界の文学 源氏物語の人と心 源氏物語の世界 |
$syamisen+$wahuu | It will be shown the same search results in the keywords "シャミセン+ワフウ"(syamisen+wahuu in katanaka). | 玉菊とその三味線 和風 和風と洋式 |
$nihon_$amerika | It will be shown the same search results in the keywords "ニホン_アメリカ"(nihon_amerika in katanaka). | 日米関係キーワード アメリカの心・日本の心 日米同盟 |
