Wikipedia definition
3. Romanization of Japanese​The romanization of Japanese is the application of the Latin script to write the Japanese language. This method of writing is known as rōmaji, less strictly romaji, literally "Roman letters", sometimes incorrectly transliterated as romanji or rōmanji. There are several different romanization systems. The three main ones are Hepburn romanization, Kunrei-shiki Rōmaji (ISO 3602), and Nihon-shiki Rōmaji (ISO 3602 Strict). Variants of the Hepburn system are the most widely used.
