transliteration yu katakana origin 由 | hiragana origin 由 | |
ゆ, in hiragana, or ユ in katakana, is one of the Japanese kana, which each represent one mora. Both are written in two strokes and represent [ju͍].
When small and preceded by an -i kana, this kana represents not a separate sound but a modification of that of another (see yōon).
