In Chinese, the generic term of "brother" does not exist. There is only "ge", which means older brother, and "di" which means younger brother. Characters relating to the family are repeated to express intimacy (ie mom = mama, dad = baba, older brother = gege, younger brother = didi, older sister = jiejie, younger sister = meimei)

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.
Cuneiform is a system of writing that used wedge-shaped symbols, appearing as abstract drawings on clay tablets. The symbols represented a combination of sounds, concepts, or objects, and were typically pressed into soft clay with a stylus. Each symbol signified a syllable or specific word.
The Chinese don't have substitutes for Roman letters; therefore, there is no Chinese equivalent for D L N. They would just simply write these letters.
To tell a better story... no just kidding the REAL reason is: Ancient Chinese would write using pictorial symbols (something like Egyptian hieroglyphics), like the word for shell would look like a shell, etc. Over the years, these symbols have morphed into the modern-day words, with the lines and strokes and everything, that is called Chinese today.

喧嚣/Xuānxiāo

氣 - Qi - It means inner power. My favorite character.
Some symbols of strength are bulls,rams,buffalo and bears. They have lots of strength and can be considered symbols of strength. Also look up the Chinese symbol for strength.

You aren't born with a chinese name, you must "earn" it or it must be given too you. Because the chinese language has no alphabet, each person has a different chinese name, even if they have the same english name.
why would that be a bad thing i look up to my older brother and thanks to him I'm a pilot in the air force i don't see anything wrong with it infact i think that's healthy to be close to your family members.
If you are talking about someone else's older brother it is Aniue. But if you are talking about your own older brother it is Onii-san. When using Onii-san some call them Onii-tama, sort of like -sama, but more childish. (Oh-nee) If you talk about someone you look up to and call them big brother, it is Aniki (兄貴)
he does have a brother, but his brother is adopted. you will see the brother in the movie The Prince of Tennis - The Two Samurai: The First Game........They Look the same just that his brother is taller and more lively than him
I see these symbols in my dream just to add to my question.
By symbols from older languages such as Hebrew and Egyptian changing and morphing. Look at the "Naked Archaeoligist" episode on Alphabet. (it has nothing to do with nudity)
