Katakana Letter Va Letter Meaning
ヷ (KATAKANA LETTER VA) is a katakana character used to write the “va” sound in Japanese katakana. It appears in loanwords and proper names where “va” occurs, and it can be part of katakana spellings that target specific sounds rather than using a closest alternative. Because it’s a standalone Unicode character (U+30F7), you can reliably copy it into design files, documents, web text, and code. This is especially helpful for consistent typography, brand spelling, signage text, and UI strings that must match the exact character.
Common uses
- •Writing loanwords or names that require an exact “va” katakana spelling
- •UI labels and headings where consistent Unicode characters matter
