Chinese symbols are somewhat like Egyptian hieroglyphics, in that one symbol can represent an entire word. Individual symbols can be combined to make new words. The Mandarin word for electricity is dian (sounds like Dee Ann). The words for computer (dian nao 电脑), TV (dian shi 电视), and telephone (dian hua 电话) all contain the word for electricity. Also, often a character is combined with another character to make one new character. Some people estimate that there are over 20,000 unique Chinese symbols. To read a Chinese newspaper, you should know 3,000 characters.

There are thousands of Chinese symbols, as Chinese is a logographic language where each character represents a morpheme.

One way to tell the difference between Chinese and Japanese text at a glance is to look for specific characters or symbols unique to each language. Chinese characters tend to have a more complex and square appearance, while Japanese characters often include simpler, more curvilinear characters mixed with kanji. Additionally, Japanese text may contain hiragana and katakana, which are phonetic scripts unique to the Japanese language.
