を, in hiragana, or ヲ in katakana, is one of the Japanese kana, each of which represents one mora. Both are phonemically /wo/, reflected in the Nihon-shiki wo, although for phonological reasons, the actual pronunciation is [o] ⓘ, reflected in the Hepburn romanization and Kunrei-shiki Romanization[1] o.
