sounds like you might have the system going into kana mode rather than
romaji or hiragana.  Check the international setting to see if this is
it (normally top right portion of the screen)  If messed right click go
to open international and make the change there if the setting you want
is not showing.

If thats not it check your keyboard settings (system
preferences->keyboard and mouse)  for messed up "modifiers keys"

hopefully that will sort you out.
