Is there a major difference between the Japanese language and the Chinese language?

There are many differences between the two languages, but it takes time to spot them. Japanese is often written in kanji, which is Chinese calligraphy but is also made up of katakana and hiragana, two alphabets used only by the Japanese language. The language itself is very different, because it is a different country, culture and lifestyle. The number system is taken from the Chinese language, but it should be noted that Japanese has its own counting system that isn't recognized by many people striving to learn Japanese. It should be realized that these are two separate languages, and it would be a much shorter list to recognize the similarities rather than the differences.

Why is Japanese written vertically?

Japanese can be written both vertically (縦書き, tategaki) and horizontally (横書き, yokogaki), formal Japanese writing is usually written vertically with lines moving from right to left. The Japanese writing system takes its roots from the Chinese writing system, and as such was initially oriented vertically. 横書き was introduced later with the introduction of western language dictionaries, the reason being because having both vertical and horizontal text in one book was rather impractical and made it more difficult to use.
