Without being boring, there are three types of writing in Japanese (am fairly sure it's the same in Chinese), with the primary one being hiragana. This is used to write all words.

After a word has been written in hiragana, it can be converted by word processors to kanji so not 100s of symbols are needed.

I can speak Japanese and a bit of mandarine Chinese. The problem with mandarine Chinese is that each word needs to be pronounced with a certain emphasis. For example, the word "ma" can mean you, horse or mother in various contexts depending on how it is said. I.e.: with a rising tone it means you. It's great being Reg |
