There are three writing systems in Japanese: kanji (characters borrowed from Chinese), hiragana, and katakana. There are over 2,000 commonly used kanji characters, along with 46 characters in both hiragana and katakana.
There are approximately 2,000 kanji characters that are commonly used in modern Japanese writing. However, there are thousands more in existence. Learners typically focus on mastering around 2,000-3,000 kanji characters to be proficient in reading and writing.
Becausethey want to. I'm Japanese, and that's just the way we do things. Our 'symbols' are really simplified Chinese characters, well Kanji is. Kanji literally means "Han Characters" and represent the phonetic sounds of the Japanese alphabet or 'kana'. Hope i helped.じょおう ((thats my name, in case you cared)) !
The Japanese writing system is based on three main scripts: Kanji (Chinese Characters), Hiragana (a set of symbols that make up different words), and Katakana (another set of symbols used for sounds and foreign borrowings). If you learn to reconize the symbols of Hiragana and Katakana you will be able to defrinciate between the Chinese and Japanese written language. You will only see Kanji in Chinese while Japanese is fused with their own symbols. A chart illustrating the Japanese 'kana' symbols can be found in the related link below.
There are 3 different Japanese scripts; Hiragana, Katakana and Kanji. Katakana is used to write names, kanji are single symbols meaning one word and hiragana is used for everything else. Japanese words written in English letters is called Romaji. hope this helped!
The three types are "Hiragana", "Katakana" and "Kanji".Hiragana are simplified Kanji symbols, and have specific sound pronunciations.Katakana are made from elements of Kanji symbols, and have specific sound pronunciations, but are used mainly for loan words, scientific words, onamatopeia, and sometimes to break apart a Kanji character which would be too complex to show in its entirety.Hiragana and Katakana make up the "Kana" symbols of Japanese.Kanji are Chinese symbols. Rather then having a direct meaning, they portray an idea - two Kanji characters together can have a meaning different from the original kanji characters.Hope that helps! =)~ Radish xxX.

No. For a name, you would never mix Katakana with Kanji. (the first two symbols are katakana (phonetic) and the third one is Kanji (Chinese character).

Kana is a name for the phonetic symbols in Japanese, while Kanji is like words. Without Kana, you won't be able to read a thing, while without Kanji, you can actually read some parts of a text.
