- Homophone: お
Syllable[edit] を (Hepburn romanizations wo, o) - (obsolete) The hiragana syllable を (wo), whose equivalent in katakana is ヲ (wo). It is the forty-seventh syllable of the gojūon order, and its position in gojūon tables is わ行お段 (WA-gyō, O-dan; "row WA, section O").

Etymology 2[edit] /wo/ > /o/ Pronunciation[edit] - The historical spelling is retained despite the modern pronunciation.
Particle[edit] を (romaji o) - An accusative case particle: a grammatical marker following the direct object.
- 私がリンゴを食べる
- わたしがリンゴをたべる
watashi ga ringo o taberu - I eat an apple
- 私をリンゴが食べる
