During the time when China sent Buddhist missionaries, the Japanese adapted their writing system from Chinese ideographs, and from that formed hiragana and katakana syllabry systems in terms of writing (In modern times the use of both kana systems in conjunction with Chinese characters are common, but back in ancient times, they were segregated by gender (the men use one type, the women used the other).
Additionally, some of the elements of Chinese culture have adapted into Japan and other countries with contact with China as well, such as the seventh day of the 7th month (known as Tanabata in Japan) with the tale of Vega and Altair meeting once every year on that day when a bridge of birds is formed.
Conversely, in modern times increasingly Chinese and Taiwanese people have borrowed certain aspects of the Japanese language (e.g. the words "obasan", and "ojisan" are used in Taiwan, and the Chinese words "宅男" [pronounced zhái nán] and "宅女" [pronounced zhái nǚ] are in reference to otaku culture in Japan) and some points in culture (especially animation and comics).

Is it true that the japanese are the best at teaching children how to play the violin?
That is just another stereotype. Although it is true that there is an abundance of incredible Japanese piano and violin players, and there are many Japanese players and teachers in the music world, there are also many amazing musicians from all other corners of the world. You can't truly judge whether Japanese violin instructors are the best at teaching children how to play the violin, because one Japanese instructor may be better than another one from a different culture, but at the same time there could be someone from somewhere else better than that Japanese instructor. There are good and bad teachers from every culture, so try to pick your teacher by reputation (and price, if that is a priority for you), not by ethnicity.
Japanese meaning for karaoke?
I don't know, ask a japanese person. *Addendum: You moron, that's what they did - you just opened your yap out of turn. The Japanese love to drink and do business over drinks. They also are a high tech society, and appreciate American music. Put that all together, and you get a culture that created the karaoke or "empty orchestra" that allows anyone to sing the lead vocals on hit songs.
