For all you Japanese/Japanese learning folk

[Sonny Resetti]

When you're sounding out 一, are the "i" sounds as in "big" or more of an "ea" sound, like in "each".

Just curious to know...

 

[Tapeu]

the i sounds are more of an "ea" sound!

 

[biibii]

or "ee" it really depends

It's like an "ee" sound. :') For example, my name in Japanese is written as ルーシー in Katakana, and it's read as Ru-u-shi-i. The dash just elongates the last sound.
