- How to write hiragana those are currently used and hiragana those were used 1000 years ago
#Japanese #hiragana - Навчання та стиль
In the past, the Japanese language had several characters derived from different kanji for a single sound. In modern times, they were unified so that there is one character for one sound. This is why some letters look so different between ancient and modern.
So, except お and を?
お o
を wo
@@tchomburike but pronunciation is the same, isn't it?
@@thegate8985 In modern pronunciation yes, but they were originally different.
@@thegate8985 I've read that Japanese decided to keep を just to use as a particle in sentences to differentiate it from お, even though their modern pronunciation is essentially the same.
yup this is the hentaigana or "変体仮名" .
today there are 45 hiraganas for 45 sounds , meaning one sound has one hiragana only for each of them . however before 1900 , there are several hiraganas that can be used interchangeably for each . for instance , "ka" can be written with 14 different hiraganas . they were all derived from the kanji 加 , 閑,可,我,駕,賀,歌,哥,香,家,嘉,歟,謌 and 佳 . all of it can be used interchangeably . another example is "ta" . there were 4 hiraganas for the sound "ta" , on which , were derived from the kanji 當 , 堂 , 田 and 佗 .
therefore , you can say that there were hundreds of characters in total that were used to write the 45 sounds in hiragana .
in 1900s , the "Regulations on the Enforcement of the Elementary School Ordinance" or "小学校令施行規則" had decided that only one selected character out of all hundreds of them can represent a sound . therefore , other forms of a kana that is not choosen are considered as "hentaigana" (変体仮名) or in "variant kana" . since then , the hiragana has been standardized .
for instance , since the sound "ka" had 14 different hiraganas , it had been decided that the hiragana that were derived from 加 , which is か is to be used .
nowadays , you can still see the hentaiganas of hiraganas on some shop signs in japan but it is not used widely anymore .
EDIT : "hentai"(変体) here is not synonymous to the word "hentai"(変態) that we all know . "変体" means "weird" or "abnormality" but "変態" is , yes you've guessed it right , "pervert" .

やめて this is too much for me to handle
correction: there are often more than 1 hentaigana from the same kanji.
@@taududeblobber221 Yes, that too. I have a sheet where I used the same manyōgana which was used for Hiragana but ended up with hentaigana which were very different from the ones we use.

I appreciate the years you have dedicated to mastering 書道 and that you are able to share your skills on UA-cam for us to enjoy :)
I swear I learn something new from this channel every day ☺️ I’m currently learning kanji but it’s nice to review hiragana and what it used to look like!
how do you learn hiragana can you read any hiragana word
@@iam__nour yes
@@weefwaffer9034 give me a tip 😩✨
@@iam__nour there's barely any trick to it other then just to remember them all.
@@iam__nour it’s not really hard to learn hiragana or katakana, because they don’t have so many characters. If you look at hiragana or katakana chart, you’ll see there’re 5 columns a, i, u, e, and o, and Japanese just has 5 vowels, and each row is a consonant combines with these vowels, except the 1st row.
こんなにきれいに崩し字/古い仮名(変体仮名含む)と現在の仮名を比較して書いているビデオが見られるなんて、感動です!
今度は同じ字母(仮名のもとになった漢字)の今昔の仮名、そして異なる字母の様々な変体仮名を書く様子も見てみたいです。
(同じ字母の仮名は昔のものも今のものに近いものが多いので楽しいとおもいます)
1000年前にタイムスリップしたら、
暮らしていける気がしない。。。
大丈夫、ほとんどの人が字解らなくても生活してたから。
「あ」は「安」から崩したものです。
この動画の千年前の「あ」の仮名は「悪」を崩したものでしょう。全く元になった漢字が違う上に他にも「阿」を崩した仮名、「愛」を崩した「あ」に対応する仮名がありましたが省略され悪の字が安の字に変化したかのように書かれているようです。「あ」だけで複数の仮名があるので明治に「安」を崩したもの一つとしました。「い」に関しても同じで「以」を略したもの、「意」を略したもの「移」を略したもの「伊」を略したものと複数の「い」に対応する平仮名が存在しました。この動画で現代とされるものは「以」を略したもので1000年前とするものは「意」を略したものです。意の略字が以の略字に変化したかのように書かれてますね。この平仮名のバリエーションが明治以前はアホのように多かった問題は「変体仮名」で調べると詳しくわかるでしょう。
1000年前から生きとる人がここにおるで～
@@pengpeng4873 誰も自分が生まれる以前のことを語ってはだめなら、今日生まれた子が学校通う意味なくなるじゃん(´・ω・｀)
今の日本では、平仮名がたくさん種類があったなんて教えられないし、知られてないですからね。
文章の中で同じ平仮名を連続させない（１つ目の"あ"と２つ目の"あ"は、違う漢字が元となっている違う平仮名を使う）ことが、昔はおしゃれというか教養があるというか、たしなみだったようですが。
このたしなみは、教養的ではないですが一昔前のギャル文字や、ネットで使われる表現（"絶対"を"糸色文寸"みたいな）に通じる部分もあるのかもしれません。
今のひらがな作った人に感謝しかない…
...fortunately current hiragana are a lot easy to remember...I can't image to learn old hiragana...impossible! Ps. Your mode to work is not simply writing...is pure art...fantastic!
But back then this was exactly how people managed to write things quicker and easier. These hentaiganas are mostly connected when written vertically, making a very good flow.
変体仮名をこんなに上手く一気に書けるなんて!！!
さすがプロ。
The Japanese/Chinese characters are so beautiful but must be a hell to learn its so satisfying to watch though
字が美しすぎて見てるだけで心が浄化されます〜☺️
そうですねぇ♪
1000年前のひらがなこそ筆で書くにふさわしい美しい文字ですね。これでうたをうたっていたんですね。
I would totally love to see him write a full text in this kind of old characters and compare them with the same text in the current hiragana.
It's funny that the old 「か」 looks like modern 「う」 and old 「て」 looks like modern 「く」
It's all cycling.
Yes why's that?
cursive kanji from different characters prob

@@jkkim2895 what?
1000年前のひらがなは、まるでアートの様な美しさを感じる。個人的には今のひらがなも曲線美溢れちゃってると思うけど、1000年後の人達から見たら芸術性に富んで見えるのかな…。
字ってそもそも美術分野だからなぁ
それを優秀な人が書けばそりゃアートに見えるさ
字が汚い人が書いたらどっちもヤバいものになるよw
とはいえ未来の人たちが現代の文字を見たら確かに読めないからアート性が強く見えちゃうかもね
楽して書こうとしていった結果のように見えますけどね。1000年前のひらがなは筆の運びが自然で書きやすいです。現代のひらがなの方が、筆で美しく書くのは難しいです。
I learned to write Japanese very long time ago. But it is my first time to see those words in the right column. Excellent and educative.
The character corresponding to と looks a lot like it came from cursive 東 (东 in Simplified Chinese, actually), which happens to have the Kan-on reading とう; shows quite clearly how much variation there was in the hentaigana character set.
Your penmanship is magical!! 💖
fun fact: originally, japanese people didn't seperate "n" and "mu" in hiragana. the characters む and ん as well as hentaigana of them were used interchangably, until someone declared that む could only be used for mu and ん could only be used for n.
Why was that so? む and ん are very different sounds.
@@s888r their consonants are actually the same nasal sound.
@@kingnoob3503 I don't get it. 'M' is a bilabial nasal whereas 'n' can vary between velar, palatal, dental and bilabial nasal sounds. And む has a vowel sound where ん doesn't.
@@s888r In japanese the "u" vowel is often just omited (i too, more rarely). So it is not that weird む would be read as just a bilabial nasal sometimes, like す is often just a voiceless fricative. In fact, you still see ム being used for just a bilabial nasal without a vowel in foreign names.
@@heatth1474 Ok, I do know this. But even then む becomes a strict bilabial nasal while ん can vary between all the different positions. I wouldn't be surprised if both ぬ and む would be replaced with ん. But then, ぬ wasn't inn this group.
変体かな、多すぎて統一に時間がかかったから明治時代とかの公文書はひらがなではなくカタカナが使われたって話

This is so cool and interesting. Love your videos. Thank you for sharing.
Finally i can understand doctors hand writing

i love how 'he' went from the most complex to the most simple haha
Unscrambling the doctors note after 1000 years XDD. Fr, this is some next level stuff, keep up the good work man.
Beautiful. I can watch this all day.
Actually interesting. Thank you for this vedio. Early Hiragana characters are so complex to understand for a begginer. They have to practice well to write those characters. Modern Japanese Hiragana characters are so easy. 😅
Writing the old 'a' is actually fascinating. And then the old 'e' came, yep not gonna try to write that down.
1000年前の平仮名を知っていて
スラスラ書けるの凄い‼️✨
そして読めない🤣🤣

Greetings from Korea. I really enjoy your writing videos, and I find it interesting that the old versions of the current Hiragana was so different. As a language enthusiast, I was wondering if you could make a video on ‘gugyeol’, which is basically a Korean version of Katakana but was poorly used due to complex old Korean phonology. Some scholars say that Gugyeol and Katakana might even be related, like the Latin-Cyrillic alphabets.
高校一年生の時に、書道の授業で変体仮名というものを習ったんですけど、その時にこの動画内にある仮名を書きました。「か」は「可」、「の」は「能」であることだけ覚えています。そのほかのものも、幾つか書いた覚えがあります。もう一度、学んでみるのも楽しそうですね。
Some of the older ones seem harder then modern version but there is also some that to me seem easier then the newer ones
すごい、全然違う。そして字が綺麗すぎて衝撃！
映画やドラマで平安時代とか戦国時代とかにタイムスリップするのがあるけど、みんないきなり普通に会話して手紙のやり取りとかしてるのってまず有り得ないんですね。
こういうの小学生の時に夏休みの自由研究でやりたかった😁
仕事で明治大正時代の戸籍謄本を見ないといけないので、すごーく勉強になりました。
The language's writing system always changes which gets me suprised. Despite the fact that i'm not Japanese and can't speak it, i'm still amazed about how the write it 1000 years ago.
最後の｢ん｣が意外にまんまだったのがなんか嬉しい。
生まれたのが今で良かった…
「か」が「う」で草
「可」を崩すと「う」みたいになる
Can we just talk about how his penmanship is insane
The old hiragana looks so chaotic.
Really like how they simplified 「へ」。
現行のかな文字のベースになってる字と違う字母のやつ選んでるじゃないですかー!
(同じ音の字は複数あるので混乱する)
わかりやすいところだと現行の「た」はベースが「太」なのに書いてるのは「多」を崩したやつとか混乱する…こっちのがよく出てくるけど…
Thank you so much for making a comprehensible hentaigana chart
ら行、外来語LとRの書き分けにどちらか使いたいですね
Idk why, but "o" is my favourite japanese vowel hiragana お
您寫的字真是優美 🥰
I need to learn this ❤
The old とlooks exactly like simplified chinese 东, which itself was derived from the 草書 of 東
Those days: squiggles
Nowadays: neat and sharp.
Personally i like squiggles but only a few people able to read in the past, so hail on sharp letters.
見惚れてしまいます。
毛筆で書ける文字って漢字の他に､片仮名・平仮名・ハングル・蒙古文字・満州語・梵字(サンスクリット文字)等々､けっこうあるんですね。これらの文字には美しく書く文化がある。タクミさんのような書道家も存在する。ちなみにアラビア文字も書道のように､美しく書く文化があるそうです。
I recommend you ‘Zhongshan seal script’ and ‘slim metal script’, which are the most beautiful handwriting style of chinese character.
Amazing...
This guy’s handwriting skills make me sick they are so good.

きれいです
これだけ仮名文字の形が今昔で違っていても、当時の人々と現代人は普通に会話できるという。

めちゃきれいあなたの字
Agreed 🙏🏽
Whooooaaaaaa whaaaaat, your skill level is most amusing
アラビア語意味わからんって思ってたけど日本語も大概だったんだな…
the ancient Japanese characters are so beautiful
I can see the old hiragana for い takes inspiration from the kanji/hanzi "I"/"Yi" 意, while the contemporary one is based on "I"/"Yi" 以. Plus that と heavily resembles the simplified "Dōng" 東 too (东)
すごい。所々漢字の片鱗が見える、、、
いやなんで書けるんですか先生…。
「きびだんご」（北海道）の「ご」の字がどう見ても「ボ」に似てて、
「『きびだんボ』ってwww」とゲラゲラ笑った懐かしい記憶があります。
一部変体仮名が混じっているようですが、文字を崩して作ったという仮名の歴史の見地から鑑みると、このようなことは決して赦されるようなものではないと感じますが、どのようにお考えでしょうか。
現行の仮名と、変体仮名としてこのようなものが使われておりましたというのであればまだしも、と感じますが。
SUPERB
こんなフォントが欲しい
One thing i always wonder is if the thing at き and さ is connected because fonts and all seem to heavily disagree, even on Wikipedia the stroke order gif for き connects but the image does not.
手書きにおいて、つなげて書くことは通常ありません。
つながっているのは、一部のPCフォントでしか見たことがありません。
The cursive versions of both of them are connected. The other versions are not. It's the same with り.
It can be connected or disconnected, depending on your own preference. Both are correct :) Its kinda like how some people right "7" with an extra line in the middle. Or some people write "8" with two circles, while some write it as an infinity sign.
With the letter "a" most people dont draw that little curve at the top of "a."
Some people dont dot their "i" or "j"
Some people write "2" just like that, while some put a little loop at the bottom
All of these differences are all correct ways to write, and non are incorrect. It's all down to the writer's preference :) The same thing is true for every language's writing system (even ancient egyptian hieroglyphics have slight differences between scribes!)
It's an issue of esthetics. The connected versions, typically used in utilitarian fonts, are the basic forms and show the path of the brush. When hand-written, a more rapidly-moving brush or pen may briefly lift up off the paper slightly in certain places (usually where the thinnest parts of the stroke would be), but it always traces the same path. A continuous stroke showing some white space is considered esthetically pleasing.
ca you please tell me your source for these hentaigana? i want to know what your source list is as different sources provide different numbers of characters for each sound.
BUT ME NEED MUH SAUCE
と obviously comes from 東, compare modern Simplified Chinese version 东 that comes from cursive variant.
@@itsnotawarcrimeifyouhadfun4709 ?
most ancient characters just scribbles with multiple sounds 💀

It was really interesting to see resemblances between the 1000yo hiragana and modern english cursive like ki = L and i = H
