Languages

Japan has her own language which is used throughout the whole entire country. Japanese is considered a challenging language to learn due to their 3 different writing system. Kanji, Katakana and hiragana. Each has their own different representation. Kanji is used to represent words with core meanings, Katakana is used mainly for foreign words and names, Hiragana is used as a linkage tool for kanji to make it work as a communication tool.

There are 46 basic hiragana and katakana. However, the usage for kanji are the ones that will take people a long time when studying Japanese language. In addition, the sentence constructions for the Japanese language are different. The verbs are at the end of the sentence instead of the front like English.
