Japanese Art

Japanese Language

The Japanese language has always played a significant role in Japanese culture. It is an agglutinative language and the sound inventory of Japanese is relatively small but has a lexically distinct pitch-accent system.

Japanese is written with a combination of three scripts: hiragana which were derived from the Chinese cursive script, katakana, which were derived as a shorthand from Chinese characters, and kanji, imported from China.
