Convert hiragana or katakana to romaji:

s := kana.RomajiToHiragana("kanji") // -> かんじ

Tell whether strings are written with kana, kanji or latin characters:

kana.IsKana("banana") // -> false

kana.IsKanji("減少") // -> true

Normalize a romaji string to a standardized form (from the form given by Google Translate, for example):

kana.NormalizeRomaji("Myūjikku") // -> myu-jikku
kana.NormalizeRomaji("shitsuree") // -> shitsurei
