NOTE: The "correct" pronunciation of Roblox is "ROE-bloks," so make sure to use the proper accent for whatever language you're typing it in....
And don't cheat and have another website in a different tab either..
Roblox (English)
Roburokksu (Romanized Japanese) |

In Japanese it would be:
Rōburokkusu
ローブロックス
The 'o' is long (ō), and you didn't put the 'u' after the second 'k'. |

I always fail at Japanese when I type it rushed.
It's just typical of me. lol |

But could you explain why the "o" would be long? In Japanese, the "o" sound already sounds like "Oe" without having to use an accent. |

Roh-bloks. |

Oe?
The 'o' is like 'pOt' or 'bOb'. In katakana, the long 'o' is used to represent the 'o' in words like 'bOAt' or 'nO'. |

Okay droid. Katakana ALMOST makes sense to me now.... except for memorizing symbols.
Also I don't like having to copy and paste letters so when I'm writing stuff in Romaji I pretty much always type in the English characters-only version of it. Thus "Roblox" in the type of Romaji I prefer would be "Rouburokkusu." Is that still considered correct? Or is that just considered stupid and lazy? >:/ |

Use 'roo', not 'rou'.
I also understand Katakana, but I can only read some of the symbols. I know all the Hiragana. |

'Rou' just makes more sense to me because that way I don't accidentally pronounce it as "Ru" all the time. But yeah, what makes sense does not equal what is correct.
Well now that's all cleared up. lol |

"Roblox" would be the same in any language. |
