Japanese Language
A few tips on learning Japanese. Japanese is made up of 3 different writing scripts

1.: Katakana

2. : Hiragana

3. : Kanji

Then there is something called : Rōmaji, Japanese written in the latin alphabet but read in a specific way.

Katakana and Hiragana are phonetic sounds. Both are derived from Kanji or Chinese characters but in a simplified form Katakana is specifically used for writing words from foreign languages, or foreign names. Words borrowed from English like television which becomes terebi. | Katakana and : Hiragana have exactly the same number of characters.
