# Sakura: a Japanese voice with a clean reading of kanji and kana

> Our note on Sakura is about accuracy: a clean reading of kanji and kana. Two recipes we kept start from her, both with Delaney, so her readings carry through a husky timbre or a lighter one.

- Language: Japanese
- Voice: Female

## Best for

- **Narration and voiceover**: Scripts heavy with kanji, the use our note points at. Readings come from context; tag the rare ones with Pronounce as.
- **Mixed Japanese and English**: Product names in Latin letters are read in place by her, with a Japanese accent.
- **The base of two kept recipes**: Husky Japanese and its lighter version both start from her. Try them before building your own.
