Hey! I am glad you found this useful!

Do you mean: ゆき ->は <- にほんのわかいおんなのこです。?

If yes, it is good to know that in Japanese, the hiragana character は is usually pronounced as "ha." However, when it's used as a grammatical particle, it is pronounced as "wa."

Here it is used as a particle that marks the topic of the sentence.

So, "ゆきは..." means "As for Yuki..." or "Yuki is ...", is the topic.

So, when は is marking the topic of a sentence, just remember:

- It's pronounced as "wa."

- It's written as は.

For example:

わたしはゆきです。

(Watashi wa Yuki desu.)

= I am Yuki.

But:

はな (hana) means "flower" and is pronounced "ha."
