JAPANESE HIRAGANA KATAKANA KANJI VOCABULARY

Home

Hey Friends,

A few years ago, I got rid of my JapaneseLanguageFoodCulture.com site. I transferred all the language information from the site to this site hoping my kids will use it to study the Japanese language. Hopefully those of you with an interest in learning Japanese can use these pages as well.

Please direct questions, comments and messages to my Facebook account. Thanks and happy learning.

Japanese Language

This page explains the Japanese language in the simplest possible terms. The focus is on learning how to pronounce Japanese along with learning to write hiragana, katakana, and kanji. Many lists of vocabulary are included and are sorted in phonetic order for the list of Japanese words and in alphabetic order for the list of English words.

Japanese Hiragana

This is a Japanese script used for already established words in the language such as sun, moon, house, mountain, people, etc. This script, along with kanji, make up about 98% of the language. This is the second script you should learn.

Japanese Katakana

This is a Japanese script used for foreign or borrowed words from other languages. Words such as convenience store (combini), television (terebi), and hotel (hoteru), are all written in katakana. This script makes up about 2% of the language. The usage is growing as more words are incorporated into Japanese from other languages. This is the third script you should learn.

Japanese Kanji

Kanji (漢字) are the Chinese characters used in the modern Japanese writing system along with hiragana (平仮名), katakana (片仮名), romaji, and the Arabic numerals. The Japanese term kanji (漢字) literally means "Han characters."

This page explains all the basics you need to know to learn Japanese kanji.
