Ri (hiragana: り, katakana: リ) is one of the Japanese kana, each of which represent one mora.

Both are written with two strokes and both represent the sound [ɾi] ⓘ.

The Ainu language uses a small katakana ㇼ to represent a final r sound after an i sound (イㇼ ir).

The combination of an R-column kana letter with handakuten ゜- り゚ in hiragana, and リ゚ in katakana was introduced to represent [li] in the early 20th century.

The hiragana character may also be written as a single stroke.
