Mode 4 of the major pentatonic scale is a Japanese scale. They call it "yo".
The pentatonic scale used in Japanese traditional music is called the Yo scale, while in Chinese traditional music it is known as the Gong scale. Both scales consist of five notes per octave and are characterized by their simple, harmonious sound.
Chinese symbols are called Hanzi or Chinese characters. Each character represents a unique concept or word, and they are used in writing Chinese, Japanese, Korean, and other languages.
The three Japanese alphabets are Hiragana, Katakana, and Kanji. Hiragana is used for native Japanese words and grammatical particles, Katakana is used for borrowed words and onomatopoeia, and Kanji consists of Chinese characters used for nouns, verbs, and adjectives in the Japanese language.
"Oriental" is an outdated and often offensive term used to refer broadly to Asian cultures and people from the East. It does not specifically denote Chinese or Japanese origins. It is more respectful to use specific terms like "Chinese" or "Japanese" instead of the term "Oriental."
Both the Japanese yen and the Chinese yuan derive their name from the same Chinese character, which means "round" or "circle." This reflects the historical shape of coins used in East Asia.
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.
