Romaji Input Rules

On desktop, input is judged by the site itself instead of the browser IME.

  • The matcher accepts shi/si, chi/ti, tsu/tu, fu/hu, and ji/zi.
  • The katakana long vowel mark ー can be typed with -.
  • Mission and Sprint use the same romaji judgment rules.

Tips for ん / っ / ー

These are the spots where Japanese typing speed most often breaks down.

  • For ん, nn and n' are always allowed, and n is also allowed before consonants.
  • For っ, doubled consonants are accepted, along with xtu / ltu / ltsu.
  • For ー, use the hyphen - in katakana words.
