Many Japanese students ignore the stroke order of characters, writing in their own way. In many cases, if the stroke order is ignored, the proportion and format of Japanese characters can be compromised, creating something unrecognizable.

It's just that each Japanese symbol needs to be written in a stroke order. The biggest difficulty for those who study Japanese is not only memorizing each ideogram and its meanings, but also being able to memorize the order of each trait. The idea of this topic is not to discuss a complete guide on how to learn Japanese Jouyou Kanji symbols, but to give some tips that can make learning Japanese easier for every Japanese student. How to learn Japanese jouyou kanji symbols In fact, Jouyou Kanjis is just the beginning of the Japanese ideographic alphabet. Hence it has become a common mistake among some Japanese students to think that Jouyou Kanji is the list of all ideograms used in Japan. And when he starts going to college, he also starts to learn more Japanese symbols, but now, these new ideograms are specific to the technical language of the chosen university course. Returning to the original focus, after finishing Japanese “high school”, every student already knows Jouyou Kanji.

The most interesting thing is that today, whenever someone writes a word in Japanese ideograms and imagines that the recipient of the message does not know the kanji used, they use furigana to make the symbol easier to read and understand, The image below demonstrates the common use of furigana in Japanese letters.Īs the use of furigana became popular among Japanese and foreigners, it ended up being used in any Japanese symbol, particularly in books for Japanese language students. In furigana, Japanese symbols that did not belong to Jouyou Kanji started to have their pronunciation written in the hiragana alphabet, positioned at a point above each Japanese symbol.

In such cases, as readers are expected not to know the meaning of words from the ideograms, but to know the meaning by reading or pronouncing these same Japanese symbols, the eastern world has started to use a system known as Furigana ( 振り仮名 ). But a good deal of written material continued to be published with Japanese symbols that do not belong on Jouyou Kanji's list of ideograms. This happened with most informational material such as magazines, newspapers, banners, posters, signs and notices in Japan. Japanese symbols outside of jouyou kanjiĪs the Japanese government determined that the Jouyou Kanji would have somewhere around 1,945 Japanese symbols, all printed material for the general Japanese public would need to be limited to the ideograms contained in the Jouyou Kanji. And so, young Japanese spend years of their lives learning the 1,945 Japanese symbols, and their various combinations, during something that would be equivalent to our Brazilian high school. With this decision, it was indirectly determined that in order to read newspapers, magazines, understand television programs and live in Japan without many problems, it would be necessary for every citizen to have full knowledge of all Jouyou kanji. Thinking about the difficulty of learning all of them, the Japanese government determined that all people trained in "high school" in Japan should know how to read and write 1,945 Japanese symbols along with many of their combinations, thus creating the Jouyou Kanji ( 常用漢字 ). Today, it is thought that the number of ideograms already exceeds 6,000 kanji. Because they represent thoughts instead of words, Japanese symbols became very numerous during the history of Japan.
