The same as what you used alphabets for, writing!
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.
In Japanese, "fu" is a hiragana character (ふ) used for phonetic spelling, while "shi" is another hiragana character (し). They are both used in writing and reading Japanese language, but represent different sounds.
Hiragana is kind of like kanji but simplified, and usually used for words that have a Japanese origin, but it is ok to write normal words with hiragana, within reason, hiragana/katakana in normal writing is based on style. Katakana is normally and supposed to be used for foreign words and names. It is usually more angular and has more straight lines. Hiragana is used for simplifying Kanji. Most words written in hiragana in japan have kanji to represent it. You need to think about kanji too. Which is often singular complex "symbols" that represents an entire word instead of writing it out. There are thousands of kanji symbols so you don't need to focus on learning them. You will learn it through looking at culture. Of course you will need to learn some for a start anyways. There is also rōmaji. This is the romanization of the Japanese language used for writing with foreigners. What you pronounce as Japanese, put into your own ABC alphabet.
Nagasaki in hiragana is ながさき.
The Japanese word for friend is tomodachi which is spelled like this in hiragana: ともだち
Of course it is! Hiragana is essential to the Japanese language, and katakana is necessary for writing foreign words.

writing is called hiragana
Hiragana is the basic, so that is most used in sense. When writing in Japanese you need a mixture of Hiragana Kanji and sometimes Katakana.
I like Hiragana better!
Japanese has two Syllabaries: Katakana and Hiragana. Katakana is mainly used for foreign words, and Hiragana is mainly used for Japanese grammatical terms and other words that have no Chinese character.
Hiragana and Katakana both resulted from the simplification of 万尿仮名 (man'yougana) which used Chinese characters for their phonetic value instead of semantic. It is estimated this happened around 800 AD.
In hiragana, it is written: ねずみ
Both are syllabaries, used to "spell" words rather than having a symbol that stands for a whole word or concept. Syllabaries relate to pronunciation. The Kanji characters do not. Hiragana is a syllabary used to write words of traditional Japanese origin. The same words have Kanji characters that stand for them. Katakana is a syllabary used to write borrowed words and words of foreign origin, such as names. It is more angular in appearance than Hiragana.
