Eau Claire Real Estate, Eau Claire Wisconsin, Eau Claire Wisconsin :: My wife and I have been married for over 35 years and we enjoy the company of our four "perfect" children. Please tell me how I can assist you. http://www.c21dave.com/About/Default.aspxHOME | http://www2.hawaii.edu/~ssatoru/other/kana/hiragana_image/index.html
if you look here there is a wa and a wo, as usual, and also a wi and a we. I would assume these are old hiragana that are no longer used? Anything beyond this? Would love to know just for the sake of knowing!
You can select ゐ and ゑ via the IME alternative-character menu, however.

Yes, the kana ‚î and ‚ï are now obsolete.
This is the result of what can be called "streamlining" in the Japanese phonetic system over history. The sounds "wi" and "we" did exist in the ancient days but had been replaced by the simpler "i" and "e" sounds. Wi YouTube video. Video not found. This video has been removed due :: And how do I find a downloadable wi-fi program if I don't still have it? If we need some back and forth just email me pls. http://www.turtilla.com/tag/videotag/WXsJ1l3rICQ-video-Wi_HOME |
I have heard professional narrators read old Japanese texts, pronouncing the sounds as they would have been read in the past, and certainly could hear them. The Japanese language has come a long way! :bluush:
Just for your reference:

ah thanks epigene and Jimmy Seal
actually my Windows XP won't make wi and we, it does this instead:
うぃ AND うぇ
