Fun facts

  • ギャ is a yōon combination made from ギ plus small ャ; it represents one blended syllable, not two separate kana sounds.
  • The hiragana equivalent is ぎゃ, using the same base-plus-small-kana pattern.
  • The second kana in ギャ is written small to show that it modifies the preceding consonant-vowel kana.
  • The dakuten on ギ voices the base sound; without it, the related combination would start with キ.
