| Feb 28, 2019 at 0:23 | comment | added | Mitch | And pitch accent is distinctive (that is, you'd need context to determine what pitch accent there is straight from writing) ? | |
| Feb 28, 2019 at 0:19 | comment | added | brass tacks | @Mitch: Japanese katakana doesn't mark pitch accent. Also, it's typically only used as one part of the Japanese writing system, which is non-phonetic as a whole. In Japanese texts written exclusively in katakana, Wikipedia suggests that the ヲ would be used to write the "wo" grammatical particle, which is (usually) homophonous with オ as [o]. | |
