The Japanese language relies on three scripts that work together: hiragana, katakana, and kanji.

• Katakana (カタカナ) also has 46 characters, mainly for foreign words, names, and onomatopoeia.
• Japanese readers need roughly 2,000 kanji to understand newspapers and standard texts.

Sentences end with the verb in Japanese, which differs from English word order.
