<table class="ui celled table">

        <tr>
            <th>Hiragana</th>
            <th>Romanization</th>
        </tr>
    </thead>
    <tbody>

<p>
	Later on, you will encounter the small <strong>っ</strong>, which is also a hiragana character.
	This character does not represent a specific sound, but is used to create a double consonant.
	For example, the word <strong>やっぱり</strong> is written <strong>yappari</strong> and the word <strong>ほっこり</strong> is
	written <strong>hokkori</strong>. In the lesson about conjugating <strong>い-adjectives</strong> you will encounter the word <strong>なかった</strong>.
	This word is pronounced <strong>na + kat + ta</strong> with the <strong>か</strong> ending with a t-sound intead of the usual a-sound.
