| | Japanese Writing Systems |
| | The written form of Japanese is a gloriously (horribly) complex and multilayered system (mess) loaded with ambiguity and uncertainty. | | | If the Japanese wished to join the rest of the world system, to ease their use of typewriters (do they still exist?) and computers, they COULD (it might seem) use the Roman alphabet. | | | Some Japanese might prefer one of these solutions to the incredible complexity of their system. |

| | Japanese Writing System |
| | This early system was a rather clumsy workaround and eventually certain characters were simplified for specifically phonetic purposes, resulting in the kana syllabaries. | | | However, the system is rather more complex than this suggests. | | | Since Japanese does not put spaces between words, this is highly useful in scanning text. |

| | Introduction to Literacy and Script Reform in Occupation Japan: Reading Between the Lines |
| | For example, it is virtually obligatory to write the words kiki and dōhai with the kanji strings 危機 and 同輩, respectively, as seen in our sentence, but the words kirinuketa and minaosareta could just as well be written entirely in hiragana -- きりぬけた instead of 切り抜けた, みなおされた instead of 見直された. | | | Organizations devoted to the exclusive use of kana or rōmaji have been politically marginalized, but manage to survive; the inefficiencies of the script remain and take their social and economic toll despite improvements in technology, including the proliferation of computers (Unger 1987). | | | Book notice for Literacy and language analysis, edited by Robert J.

| | The early attempts at adopting the Chinese writing system for Japanese met with many very difficult to overcome problems and the earliest solutions often avoided the problem by using Chinese syntax. | | | This article describes the origin of the Japanese writing system and serves as an introduction to this complex and yet very beautiful language. | | | Japanese has far fewer characters (the largest dictionary will have some 10,000 Kanji), however, each character has several different readings and several word combinations simply must be memorized as words. |

| | Simplified Spelling Society : Japanese writing system. |
| | Historical kana usage is in fact rather more convoluted than the above examples might suggest. | | | Apart from the sheer number of Chinese characters in use and the complexity of shape of many of them, another source of difficulty with the prewar writing system had been the fact that a given character often had a large number of words or morphemes (conventionally known as 'readings') associated with it. | | | In consequence the children used a high proportion of kana (many to write words which in texts for adults would normally be written in kanji). |

| | Japanese - hiragana, katakana, kanji, romaji |
| | Over time a writing system emerged in which Chinese characters were used to write either words borrowed from Chinese or Japanese words with the same or similar meanings. | | | Chinese characters were also used for their phonetic values to write grammatical elements and these characters were simplified and eventually became two syllabic scripts, hiragana and katakana. | | | Modern Japanese texts may also include rōmaji, (Roman letters), the standard way of writing Japanese with the Latin alphabet, eimoji (English script), non-Japanese words written in their own script and various symbols known as kigō. |
