Why are Japan still using kanji?
-->
Ah, [[Japanese Language|日本語]], how have you graced us with your many odd quirks. From the fact that "は" can be read as "ha" and "wa", to the mystery surrounding a word as simple as [https://www.tofugu.com/japanese/anata/ あなた anata] (you). [[Gratuitous Japanese|Anata]] are truly a difficult language to learn. However, those various little quirks are absolutely nothing compared to the wall all learners have to face at some point. That little wall goes by the name of kanji.
Line 100 ⟶ 99:
* '''Shinjitai''': Written 新字体, this is the simplified set of Japanese characters, which are often used today. Compare with simplified Chinese characters.
* '''Strokes''': The number of times you need to set down your pen on paper, to write a character. For example, 一 has one stroke, while 二 has two, because a pen needs to touch the paper one time to write 一, but it needs to touch the paper twice to write 二.
