Answer:
Sometimes you see a small tsu (known as a sokuon) at the end of a sentence. This small tsu indicates a 'glottal stop'. This means you use your epiglottis (the little flap that closes the pathway to your throat when you swallow) to stop the flow of air. The small tsu indicates a verbal 'exclamation mark'.
When the small tsu comes at the end of a word or sentence, it always indicates the glottal stop and makes the pronunciation of the word end with a sharp stop instead of the slowly fading to silence.1 may 2017
In Japanese, the phrase 女の子 (onna no ko) refers to a little girl.25 may 2021
You know that the small tsu is just a double consonant (two of the same non-vowels next to each other, like tt or pp), so in order to get a small tsu, all you have to do is type two of the same consonants in a row.
