Dear Readers,
How are you getting along with Katakana Shiken?
I hope the exercises will help you in understanding how loanwords are written and spoken. We will continue with a few more exercises and we hope you will have fun decoding whenever you encounter with loanwords written in katakana.

Loanwords are foreign words adopted into the Japanese language. The spelling and the pronunciation may differ from the original but I think you just need a little time and patience and in no time you will be skillful in decoding katakana. The following quiz will make it fun for the early learners to begin learning katakana. Match the katakana to their English equivalent. Use the blank column to decode.
