Fun facts

  • キュ is a yōon combination made from キ plus small ュ; it represents one blended syllable, not two separate kana sounds.
  • The hiragana equivalent is きゅ, using the same base-plus-small-kana pattern.
  • The second kana in キュ is written small to show that it modifies the preceding consonant-vowel kana.
