With each character...In a Kanji dictionary, you can see the both of them...and Kanji's are coming from China... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

tengaku squared 291 Report post Posted September 5, 2011 i think they use it based on their meanings, they use the kanjis as much as possible They actually try not to, since kanji can have more then one meaning (if you're talking about Japan). Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

-The Rising Angel- 48 Report post Posted September 5, 2011 They actually try not to, since kanji can have more then one meaning (if you're talking about Japan). Hiragana it's used in proportion of 30%, Katakana 20% and Kanji 50% <_< Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wildheart888 170 Report post Posted September 5, 2011 ^ You mean Kanji 50%? xP But yeah agreed! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AiSuigetsu 110 Report post Posted September 5, 2011 @moho: i think its the other way around, hiraganas have several meanings depending on the way they're used, but kanji have only one meaning some japanese words sound the same but are written differently in kanji such as 雲/くも (kumo -> cloud) 蜘蛛/くも (kumo -> spider) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
