Jul 10, 2009 #6 Shinpachi Colonel 12,030 15,471 Feb 17, 2008 Osaka Oh, Colin1. You can read Katakana letters The "Hu Mu Na" means "Don't step." Hu Mu is 'step'. Na is 'don't'. The Na is used like follows - Yu Ku Na = Don't go. Ku Ru Na = Don't come. Su Ru Na = Don't do. Thank you

Jul 10, 2009 #8 Shinpachi Colonel 12,030 15,471 Feb 17, 2008 Osaka Katakana is easy to read. It is good for warning purpose. We tend to think the symmetrical lettering is beautiful to see. Translation of the image "ecuas ayamaY puhctek otamoT Yamaya"
