Japanese characters used in a book



Japanese characters used in a book

Originally uploaded by Japanese news.


Today, I would like to teach you about what sort of Japanese character are mainly used, as I received a question.

But, the answer for this is “It really depends”.

So, I will show you what Japanese characters are used in a book.

As you can see some of the Japanese characters used in this book, themajory of Japanese characters are written by using the kanij script. Also,

they are written vertically. As a tradtional Japanese writing, we write

character from left to right vertically.

You may wonder whywe read books backwards.

No, no…

This is a normal way of reading Japanese books. For Westerners, that is

backward.
