Until the Meiji period, there were many hiragana. Nowadays they are called hentai-kana(変体仮名). Hentai-kana has about 270 characters and they all made from kanji. It can be said that modern hiragana is part of hentai-kana. Almost Japanese people can't read/write hentai-kana. If we can read, also may be able to read parts of documents written before the Edo period. Sorry for my poor English.
The hiragana used depended on the region, correct? It is only recently (maybe 100 years ago) that the unified hiragana system was developed. You have better English than I have Japanese, so you're doing great in my book.
𛄠 (yi, origin character 以) 𛄡 (ye, origin character 延) 𛄢 (wu, origin character 汙) also, i noticed that a lot of characters have the same origin character in hiragana and katakana.
Yi and Wu do not exist. Yi and Wu have never existed in hiragana and katakana because it is physically impossible to make those sounds in the Japanese language. However, the sounds Ye and We used to be part of hiragana and katakana, but over time their pronunciation was lost, so their characters became obsolete.
@@user-ef1qy9zq1g It is true that Yi and Wu are not syllables existing in Japanese, but multiple times people have created these characters to fill in the gaps in the Gojuon. Obviously they were never used, but the characters did exist.
@@user-zu3wq3lf3h Yes, people did use characters to fill in the gaps for the sake of convenience. But because historically multiple kana were used for each syllable (hentaigana), these were essentially just variants of い and う rather than separate characters.
@@user-ef1qy9zq1g but after the hentaigana were removed from standard usage, people still put different characters in the yi and wu sections of the chart. therefore, they are separate characters, even if they originated from hentaigana. also, the modern *hiragana* of wu is a character that was never used as hentaigana. i don't know if this is true of any of the katakana.
That's what they want you to think..... See the idea that japanese originates from chinese neglectes all orher evidance Su h as the many curse words in the japanese lenguage... From nigarundayu to the fact that when you write america in japanese (アメリカ) It spells out In hebrew maniac/a hole aka (מניאק) And i'm only getting started Na... japanese is defintly a manufactured language Hhhh
So Katakana ム comes from 牟, which is the sound of a cow, and cows kind of sound "mu". Then there's Hiragana む which kind of looks like a cow, and is pronounced the same as ム.
I thought that the katakana from ア (a) was more similar to kanji 了 (shu) that for 阿/啊 (a) , ヰ (wi) to kanji 衛 (Mamoru), and even the katakana ヲ (wo), フ (fu) and コ (ko), they look more like korean letters ㅋ (k), ㄱ (g), 그 (geu), katakana ト (to) also similar to the Korean vowel ㅏ(a) and ヱ (we) to chinese simplified 卫 in tradicional 衛
Lo que pasa es que según se, el katakana y el hiragana vienen de los kanji (carácter chino) con el fin de usarse como se hace en el chino, ya que en ese idioma y en cualquier otro, no todo puede estar compuesto de símbolos que representen conceptos, sino que también algunos símbolos o dibujitos son usados solo con su fin fonético y no su significado. Es por eso que en Japón, ciertos kanji evolucionaron hasta convertirse en katakana y hiragana, los cuales son solo usado con un fin fonético y no representan ningún concepto por si solos, son simplemente sílabas

katakana（片仮名）： not use the meaning of this Chinese character； only use the pronunciation of this Chinese character to record the Japanese pronunciation； use a part of this Chinese character to represent the pronunciation； similar to the alphabetic symbol
Just made me realize, basically languages and characters derived from its ancestry becomes simpler and simpler to write characters or symbols over time? I mean looking at this comparison and the comparison of old english language to english language. Ex. Most Chinese characters require 6 or more strokes to finish 1 chinese character. While japanese katakana derived from it requires mostly 2 or 3 strokes to finish a japanase character.
Chinese characters are full words. Katakana are syllables. There is virtually no difference in the length it takes to write an entire word between Mandarin and Katakana writing. The idea that languages become simpler overtime is linguistically unproven. For instance, the modern alphabet used in English is more complex than the ancient Hebrew alphabet it is derived from.
@@solarprogeny6736 I see. I guess I may just be bias and used to for forming short and long words with using around less than 26-28 alphabet letters(both english and my native mother tongue) that takes 1-3 strokes to make each letter than trying to memorize more than 100+ characters(that takes 3+ strokes to finish one character) to form a sentence or word(and I somehow see almost every kanji/chinese character very similar to each other and one wrong small stroke will already mean a different word or sound.)

Katakana is the cantonese pronunciation of the origin word while hiragana resemble the mandarin pronunciation. Katakana words is like pronouncing English words in cantonese syllables
It is quite interesting that the Katakana has a more similar pronounciation with the Chinese characters when the Chinese characters are pronounced in Cantonese instead if Mandarin
Mandarin has been heavily influenced by the Qing court (Northern China, Manchurian) for a few centuries. The original inhabitants of the Northern lands usually flee South and get conquered last, and so would accumulate the older pronunciations in the South.
And as a Shanghainese speaker I can say the same thing; a lot of pronunciations are really similar with the Wu 吴dialects, which Shanghainese is a part of.
Many Japanese words are more similar to Mandarin, sun 太阳, cheers干杯....etc. Japanese derived these words from Middle Chinese, same as Chinese dialects. Some retains more of its old sound, some less. It depends on the particular word or poem. Min-nan, Cantonese, Hakka....Chinese linguists don't have a consensus, funny internet experts are making claims based on selective examples. Mandarin emerged from Ming dynasty, compared to Tang era, it rhymes less. Not so much it was influenced by Qing court, in fact, the court adopted Mandarin leading to the demise of Manchu language- doesn't have er sound. Mandarin did lose some tone, but also kept many sound as it was derived from old Nanjing dialect of Middle Chinese. Languages are fluid, changes over time. Cantonese spoken 500 yrs ago isn't the same as today, Shakespeare English unintelligible to modern English. Even South Korean sounds different from North K after just 50yrs.

子ども心に、何処がカタカナになったんだろう？と思っていた文字は、今見ても、なるほどね〜ってならへんわ！ってかんじでした笑
Interessante
same for kanji
i think シ came from the water radical
Looks like he messed up the 千 a bit.
ひらがなもだが へ だけは納得いかない
へ は平仮名カタカナ両方とも、
部の旁の阝(おおざと)の1画目から生まれました。
補足として、
アの字は阿の偏の阝(こざと)の1画目と2画目から生まれました。
ヨって曜の右上から来てるんだと思っていた。
こういう小学校低学年向けの教養マットどっかにありそうですね
Me being Japanese
ア(a) 〜 カ(ka) : understood
キ(ki): 🤔
キは意外な部分から来てるのね。
まあ本当は、長い歴史の中で、草書体とか崩し字とかを経由したんだろうけど、
所どころ「なぜその部分を採用した？？」というのがあるけどw
「キ」て「機」のそこかい！？ となったww 他の部分じゃダメだったんかいwww
「天」のとき、一画の途中で止まったから間違えたのかと思ったら(笑)
how does he switch pens so fast?
It's on speed x1.3
@@Jay_D_Ashe You mean he is on speed?!
@@jeff-8511 ...yea sure
✌🏻😎🇴🇲مرحبا
so fast i can't follow LOLz can you please write slowly hahaha so we can follow thnk you ❤️
Ke katakana looks more like the chinese character for Sa 😆
キの漢字をみて「そこなの！？」っておもった。
あと関係ないけどたまに「ツ」と「シ」、「ソ」と「ン」がごっちゃになっている人がいるよね。
手書きだとその違いはやすく判別できないんだね
what is the difference between so and n in katakana?
ソ is narrow and tall, both strokes start from top.
ン is wider and short, second stroke starts from bottom.

5:38 - 5:50
Again . . . I frankly could never see how either the Japanese hiragana or katakana of へ
could in any way related to the Chinese character 部
Mind elaborating on this?
@@user-um7ps9no1y
Oh well you didn't answer my question . . . How in the world is Japanese へ in any way related to the Chinese character 部 ?
@@peterchan6082 I can tell you how "ヘ" is related "部" The right side of "部" is "阝"
Takumi wrote 阝with three strokes.
"ヘ" came from "The first stroke"
The second stroke and the third stroke is not related.(Sorry for my poor English…😞)
@@peterchan6082 For your information, "ア" came from "阿". The left side of "阿" is "阝". "ア" came from "the first stroke" and "the second stroke" of "阝". The third stroke is not related.
@@kgpn_bread
Ok, if that is a relation it is the most remote I could ever imagine of.
@@kgpn_bread
At least ア looks much more like 阝 from the original Chinese.
讀音都可以追溯埋😱
睇佢一筆一畫好流暢舒服😊
不過又會出現簡體字咁得意嘅
片假名歷史好似長過簡體字？
古时就有简体字了
カタカナの成り立ちは諸説有ります。明らかに無理のある略仕方が多すぎて異論が沢山有ります。(部→ヘ、末→マ、須→ス、禮→レ、等)
礼是禮的异体字，自古就有这种写法
須 行书
末 草书
カタカナの成り立ちは諸説あるが､修行僧が仏典を覚える際に､写経に使用したと言う説もある。
須の行書体
末の草書体
検索
礼→レじゃ？
Apart from modern history of WW....
I truly wish Japanese, Korean and Chinese can be good brothers as were in the past during dynasty era..
we all eat rice with bowl and chopsticks, don't we..?
幾→き
機→キ
その木偏で自己主張するのなんなん
木偏ない説ありますがね。
き も キも両方 幾 の字から生まれたとしているのもあります
Like drawing...
Next video: every kanji is a Chinese character
so え and シ's origin are the same
Why you writing red colour after black ? Please tell お客様
To emphasize lines where katakana came from.
Because the red strokes inspired the respective katakana characters.
i always assumed it's to highlight the part of the character that the katakana is from.
@@SDF-fr6bq ah thank you for knowledge 💐🤗

機→キ は無理矢理感あるなあ（笑）
