About the writing system... - 10-21-2011, 11:21 PM

Hi, I have a book that has charts and tables of the Hiragana and Katakana
letters (or characters.) I wanted to know if the sound that the letter makes
is also the name of the letter. I know its a confusing thing to ask, here is an
example.

(Hiragana character)
makes the sound hi, is that also the name of the letter?
I think it probably is, I just want to make sure so I don't look dumb on the long run.
