How Do You Say That

This section is to help you pronounce people, places or things from the original Japanese version of Sailormoon. I hope that this is of some help to you [who are not familiar with the characters] and it helps you get along a little easier when navigating through the site.

Are you having trouble pronouncing a person, place or thing from the Japanese version of the show? If it is not posted here write to me and ask. I will post it up as soon as I can.
