Fun facts

  • Katakana エ comes from part of the kanji 江, while hiragana え developed from a cursive man'yōgana form.
  • エ can be confused with 工, the kanji for work, because the forms are visually almost identical in many fonts.
  • エ does not normally take dakuten or handakuten in standard modern kana.
