I have been typing in Japanese for a while now but I cannot figure out how to type ティ (small ィ, not a big one イ).
How does one do this using the Katakana input method of OSX?

in Katakana mode. Generally, prefixing x
will generate the small variant character (useful if you need to generate ゅ, ょ or っ in isolation).
The x
prefix does generate the small variant, but what you probably want is thi
.
thi
instead of texi
or teli
? Thanks.
Building off of Justin's answer, there's a few other special katakana input strings that I found online. I added the "hiragana" versions as well based on the keyboard I'm using (Swype), but obviously not all of the input strings produce hiragana versions. Also, this is definitely not an exhaustive list.
wi = ウィ/うぃ
we = ウェ/うぃ
va = ヴァ/ヴぁ
vi = ヴィ/ヴぃ
vu = ヴ
ve = ヴェ/ヴぇ
vo = ヴォ/ヴぉ
she = シェ/しぇ
je = ジェ/じぇ
fa = ファ/ふぁ
fi = フィ/ふぃ
fe = フェ/ふぇ
fo = フォ/ふぉ
che = チェ/ちぇ
