human language, character. /kahn'jee/ (From the Japanese kan - the Chinese Han dynasty, and ji - glyph or letter of the alphabet. Not capitalised. Plural kanji) The Japanese word for a Han character used in Japanese. Kanji constitute a part of the writing system used to represent the Japanese language in written, printed and displayed form. The term is also used for the collection of all kanji letters. US-ASCII doesn't include kanji characters, but some character encodings, including Unicode, do. The Japanese writing system also uses hiragana, katakana, and sometimes romaji (Roman alphabet letters).
It is in this manner the Japanese developed kanji, the Chinese characters used in Japanese. Japanese uses three different scripts, not counting Roman Letters and Arabic Numerals, in everyday writing: kanji, hiragana and katakana. Kanji, as noted, is the Chinese characters seen in Japanese text. Hiragana and Katakana are symbols derived from grass script calligraphy of Chinese characters and evolved to be their syllabary. Chinese only uses Chinese characters.
