Fun facts

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