There have been Japanese words, which are explained in our Japanese dictionary. But, today, we are showing a Japanese phrase and those Japanese characters. As you can see, there are Japanese symbols written on the label. They are the sales copy of the Japanese sake,and says `Choose one with the best taste: Maru` which are called Umasade Erabu: Maru in Japanese.

Today’s Japanese symbols we are going to add into our Japanese dictionary is the Japanese characters used in a Japanese phone. Firstly, 2 kanji symbols on the push are says denwa, and kiru in Japanese. They mean on and off. But, literally means phone and switch off. There are Japanese words for menu which are written in katakana scripts, the volume, which are wirtten in kanji scripts, and phone book which are written in kanji as well. They are called ”me nu u”, “on ryou”, and “Denwa chou” respectively.
By the way, phone is pronounced as denwa in Japanese. So, we say denwa ki for telephone, denwa chou for phone book, denwa bangou for telephone number, and whatever other things which are related to phone add denwa.
So, today, we are going to add these Japanese symbols into our Japanese dictionary.

Many Japanese symbols
Originally uploaded by Japanese news.
Writting How to use in Japanese is using one Hiragana symbol and four kanji symbols.
The first character is GO in Hiragana, and the next four symbols are Shiyo u in kanji. These kanji symbols mean USE in Japanese. The next two symbols are also kanji symbols and mean method.
The Japanese symbols we are explaing are in the middle of this picture and colored white inside of the blue box.
By the way, some people think what the GO hiragana symbol mean. The hiraga and katakana symbols have no meaning by itself. Because they are phonetic characters.
In the Japanese dictionally we explain in detail.

Japanese warning
Originally uploaded by Japanese news.
Yesterday, the Japanese dictionary explained about the warning sign you see in a Japan’s elavator. Those Japanese symbols are used particularly for letting people to know a door in front of them. So they are normally used where an automatic door is used. Today, on the other hand, the ordinally warning is going to be added into our Japanese dictionary. These Japanese symbols are written in kanji characters and they are called Kei Koku. Next to the Japanese kanji symbols, there is a ! mark in a rectangular. That is also the sign of warning which is quite often used in Japan. Although it is black and white, the symbol is colored in yellow.
The first kanji symbol means warning and the second symbol means to tellin Japanese. By combining individual kanji word, it become the warning sign. This method of writting is called kanji compound.
In Japanese language, the method is used quite often when writting words in Japanese kanji.
So we will these Japanese symbols into our Japanese dictionally.
