U+308D "ろ" Hiragana Letter Ro is one of the 46 basic syllables in the Japanese hiragana script, representing the mora "ro." It is derived from the cursive form of the Chinese character 呂 (ro) and is used in modern Japanese writing for native words, grammatical particles, and verb or adjective endings. In romaji, it is transliterated as "ro," and it is the final character in the standard hiragana syllabary, followed only by the obsolete "ゐ" (wi) and "ゑ" (we). This character plays a fundamental role in Japanese literacy, often appearing in common words such as "ろく" (roku, meaning six) and as a component in compound characters.
