Which alphabet has more characters in it, Chinese or Japanese?

Of course Chinese. Japanese have "stolen" a lot of characters from Chinese and developed two sets of symbols of their own  syllabic writing: hiragana and katakana, which symbols, strictly speaking, are not characters. But even if you add up hiragana and katakana symbols together with the characters that they are using, the number will still be much less than the number of characters used in Chinese.

In Japanese, there is a phonetic character set (two, actually) called kana, consisting of 46 symbols each. There are only 46 distinct syllable sounds in the Japanese language. Japanese computers typically have a keyboard with each of these 46 characters mapped out. Alternatively, you can use the Roman alphabet to spell out these 46 sounds.\n\nChinese can also be entered phonetically. There are also some input methods that involve entering a character piece by piece, since complex Chinese characters are often composed of smaller, distinct pieces. This entry method can be supported with a relatively simple keyboard of 24 keys, each of which represents one or more of these pieces.

Chinese names are short compared to other counrties. Usually they only have first name and last name, no middle name. So in Chinese, normally a name is only 2-4 characters. Chinese Pingying (which tells us how to pronounce the Chinese word)is used in the English or other languages as name. Pingying is much longer than the real Chinese characterm, making the Chinese name about 2-10 letter1 long in first name, 2 to 6 letters long in last name.\n\nI hope this doesn't confuse you.

Have you tried to adjust some of the free java scripts? they are available almost everywhere, and if you set the character set on Chinese, I think that should work properly.\nUnfortunately, I hanese, but this did work for have had no experience with web proramming in Chinese. If tis does not help, I wish you good luck, anyway!

Japan uses a QWERTY keyboard with Japanese phonetic characters superimposed over the keys on the bottom right corners.\nThere are only 50 phonetic characters, so they fit without difficulty on the keyboard.\n\nHowever, most people type phonetically using the QWERTY setup and just ignore the Japanese setup. When I type in Japanese, I type it out phonetically in English lettering. There is an embedded program that converts that into Japanese characters. The characters are selected (shown as underlined) until I hit either space or enter (or both). Space shows a list of characters that sound like that and I choose the ones I want to use. Enter leaves it as is, or lets me end the selection. I move on to the next word and repeat.

Well, it ranges from 40,000 to 80,000 because it's really difficult to give an exact count as to the number of characters, since many of them are obscure, unused, or arcahic variants, even though they are all different.\n\nFor example, "two" is normally written as 二\nHowever, these two characters: 貳  弍 are ancient, though pretty much unused, ways to write it.\n\nCheck out the first source for more info.  I hope this helps  :)

newspapers are mostly written in Kanji.  There are three kinds that they use by Japanese people.  Hiragana, Katakana, and Kanji.  They use all three together sometimes. They use Katakana in reference to western words.  Not all japanese people can read Kanji as it's the hardest one.

Go up to the top of the window in Internet explorer, click on "view", then "encoding" and then "more."  It will give you some choices for Chinese characters.  Find the one that works.  Just be sure to put it back into English when you are done.

Chinese alphabet doesnt work that way. It's more of a series of ideas than a series of phoenetical images. And there's more than a thousand characters, so it'd be a bit of work.

are you thinking of 'symbols' as in the korean equivalents of chinese characters? cause korean characters are like english characters.. they spell sounds so the same combination of korean vowel and consonants can mean a million things.\n\nbut if you're not, then i don't know.

In your web browser (Explorer/Firefox), click "View" on the toolbar and go to "Encoding" or "Character Encoding". From there you should be able to find Chinese under "More...". \n\nThe type of Chinese encoding you will need depends on the email, so just try all of them until you get to one that works.

Chinese is the older language.  Japanese went to China in the Chin dynasty to learn the language and culture; therefore, lots of Japanese words have Chinese roots, some even have similar meanings.\n\nChina, the sleeping dragon, is the rising power and is the better language to learn.

♡Modern Japanese uses three main "scripts":♡\nKanji, characters of Chinese origin,\n☆ There are several ten thousands of characters, at least 50,000of which 2000 to 3000 are required to understand newspapers. A set of 1945 characters has been officially declared as the "kanji for everyday use". \nhttp://www.japan-guide.com/e/e2046.html\nHiragana, a syllabary, and \nKatakana, a syllabary. \n☆Hiragana and katakana each consist of 46 signs which originally were kanji but were strongly simplified over the centuries. When looking at a Japanese text, one can clearly distinguish the two kinds of signs: the complicated kanji and the simpler kana signs.\nhttp://www.japan-guide.com/e/e2047.html\n☆It is also possible to write Japanese in Roman letters. In Japanese, this is called rōmaji. The Japanese rarely use this system to write their own language, except for abbreviations (often of a technical nature) where it is becoming increasingly common (e.g., CD and DVD).\nHope this helps! (*^o^*)I live in Japan and after nine years I am still trying to learn all the kanji characters I can.♡

Oh is a common surname in Korea and there are similar names in Japan. Korean & Japanese are both thought to originate in China though, and there are surnames in China which are similar too eg. Or and Au. Also be aware of "same" surnames (the Korean/Japanese/Chinese character is the same) but different English spellings because of variations in dialects, language and pronunciation.
