Fun facts

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