Hey Guys~! (〃^▽^〃)
Remember last time I wrote on Japanese Characters?
The one that I said I will tell you further later?
Yeah, that's right! It's the kanji Characters!
If you don't get what I'm talking about,
Yes that's it! In this course that I've been taking,
Zoraida-sensei introduce to us(my classmates and me)
some of kanji vocabularies. We learned it through interactive way,
one thing I love in this Japanese class is that we always
learn through interactive and creative ways!
Like I've told before, Kanji actually were brought over from
China. The difference between kanji and hiragana/katakana,
is that kanji isn't phonetically syllabry.
Kanji is a set of characters that represent whole words.
Kanji words basically evolved from a picture of nature/things.
Let's take a look!
The best thing about Japanese Kanji is that, the way we
pronounced kanji characters is exactly the same with
the hiragana/katakana pronunciation.
Below is some of kanji words that we've learned in Nihongo Class:
1. 大(ookii) - Big
2. 小(chiisai) - Small
3. 新(atarashi) - New
4. 古(furui) - Old
5. 肉(niku) - Meat
6. 卵(tamago) - Egg
7. 魚(sakana) - Sakana
Could you figure out how does it evolved from the picture? ;)
P.s: There are actually some examples of kanji that I've posted
in previous posts. Try figure it out (^_~)
That's all from me today, thanks for reading╰(*´︶`*)╯
