A brief introduction to Japanese language

Japanese is more commonly known as “Nihongo” in Japanese script. It is an East-Asian language that is spoken by nearly 120 million people mostly in Japan and some other countries like the Americas, where people with Japanese roots have settled. It ranks 7thpreceded by Mandarin, Hindi, Russian, Indonesian, Arabic and Bengali as the most spoken language in Asia.

Japanese language belongs to Japonic language family. The Japanese writing scripts follows three different scripts

Kanji

The characters that where borrowed into Japanese from Chinese during the early and middle era of Japanese language evolution formed the Kanji writing system. As the language evolution continued into modern era some Kanji’s where deformed and lost their original meaning. This made the people to develop other writing systems in Japanese. Generally there are no spaces used between characters in Japanese,hence Kanji helps in differentiating words within a sentence and also to differentiate homophones. Most of the nouns, adjectives and verbs used in Japanese are expressed using Kanji. There are more than 40,000 Kanji characters in Japanese out of which almost 2,000 kanji’s are currently being utilised in Japanese written system.

Hiragana

It is one of the two Kana scriptsthat utilises syllabaries and not alphabets. These syllabaries do not represent a single consonant. There are 46 characters in this script, of which 5 are singular vowels and 9 are consonants. These 9 consonants combine with the 5 singular vowels to form 45 consonant-vowel characters. Hiragana is used to express words for which there are no Kanji equivalents in the native language and also when the Kanji meaning is unknown. Hiragana is mainly used for grammatical purposes.

Katakana

The word Katakana means “fragmentary script”. This kana is mainly used to express words which have foreign origin and those have been adopted into Japanese language, ex: it is used to represent words of roman origin for which there are no equivalent characters in Kanji. Katakana has the same number of syllabaries and thesame number sounds as compared to Hiragana;however the characters in Katakana are totally different.

Other terms:

Romaji is the name given to the Romanization of Japanese characters to make it easier for a foreign speaker who does not understand Japanese language.

Furigana are smaller characters of Hiragana or Katakana that are placed above or next to Kanji characters to help the readerswho do not know the Kanji characters yet or for children who have just began to learn Japanese.
