Grey background indicates obsolete characters.

Notes

^ ^a ^b ^c Theoretical combinations yi, ye and wu are unused, and are shown here replaced by i, e and u.
^ ^a ^b ^c The characters in theoretical positions wi and we are obsolete, and are shown here alongside their modern equivalents イ (i) and エ (e). The character wo, in practice normally pronounced o, is preserved in only one use: as a particle. This is normally written in hiragana (を), so katakana ヲ sees only limited use. See Gojūon and the articles on each character for details.
^ ^a ^b ^c ^d ^e The ヂ (di) and ヅ (du) kana (often romanised as ji and zu) are primarily used for etymologic spelling, when the unvoiced equivalents チ (ti) and ツ (tu) (often romanised as chi and tsu) undergo a sound change (rendaku) and become voiced when they occur in the middle of a compound word. In other cases, the identically-pronounced ジ (ji) and ズ (zu) are used instead. ヂ (di) and ヅ (du) can never begin a word, and they are not common in katakana, since the concept of rendaku does not apply to transcribed foreign words, one of the major uses of katakana.

[unused-1] Theoretical combinations yi, ye and wu are unused, and are shown here replaced by i, e and u.

[obsolete-2] The characters in theoretical positions wi and we are obsolete, and are shown here alongside their modern equivalents イ (i) and エ (e). The character wo, in practice normally pronounced o, is preserved in only one use: as a particle. This is normally written in hiragana (を), so katakana ヲ sees only limited use. See Gojūon and the articles on each character for details.

[etymologic_spelling-3] The ヂ (di) and ヅ (du) kana (often romanised as ji and zu) are primarily used for etymologic spelling, when the unvoiced equivalents チ (ti) and ツ (tu) (often romanised as chi and tsu) undergo a sound change (rendaku) and become voiced when they occur in the middle of a compound word. In other cases, the identically-pronounced ジ (ji) and ズ (zu) are used instead. ヂ (di) and ヅ (du) can never begin a word, and they are not common in katakana, since the concept of rendaku does not apply to transcribed foreign words, one of the major uses of katakana.
