Lmao so true I thought the o (お) was supposed to be wa (わ) or re (れ)

That's pritty similar to the difference between block style and writing style. Hiragana is originally made for fast writing in casual note taking.

[@Müller_FW]

@@li_tsz_fung In Japanese, we call simplifying characters as「崩す(kuzu-su)」 , so 崩し文字(simplified character) contains 草書, I think.

[@ぼーちゃん-y6i]

@@li_tsz_fung You don't know what you are talking about. This video shows how "Hiragana=ひらがな" was been made. Hiragana is also written as 「平仮名」, which 仮名 already means "broken characters". So basically, this video shows how did the Chinese characters (we Japanese call them kanji=漢字) got into broken characters, and even more broken that it becomes a set of Japanese alphabet, Hiragana. We think as the 草書 as something like cursive writing. Besides, 草書 is broken characters. In ancient China, pictures became into Character letters, that became 篆書, which 篆書 became 隷書, that 隷書 gets simplified into 楷書, 行書 and 草書. 草書 is the most broken font style to write, it was made for writing on papers. Don't you learn that in wherever your country is?

Hiragana comes from a kind of writing style of Chinese character named Cao shu. Katagana comes from another kind of writing style of Chinese character named Kai shu. In a word both them come from Chinese character. These two writing style are usd in calligraphy. But we Chinese use kai shu (also kai to) in our daily life.

I’m so glad Japanese doesn’t use those ancient squiggles that were between Chinese characters and Hiragana. I can’t imagine trying to read those, let alone write. Damn.

[@styjoy]

The characters in between are not really “characters”. They’re a certain writing style developed in ancient China, called 草书, literally “careless/messy scripts”. It was somehow reserved to the higher class people, as lower class didn’t even read. Tho people nowadays no longer write that way (I doubt they ever write anymore), it’s still a living art form of Chinese calligraphy.

[@あらもっちゃ]

Japan imported kanji/Chinese character, Chinese culture and administrative system until 9th century but collapse of the Tang dynasty caused the Japanese people to stop learning from China, then they began to grow their own culture, including Hiragana.

[@harryz1317]

Look at handwritings by Zhu Geliang 諸葛孔明 or Si mayi 司馬懿 from the Three Kingdoms period and you’ll be surprised at how similar the cursive writings look like hiragana. Some are even the same. You can see ゐ　ふ　は in Zhu Geliang’s handwriting. And that’s hundreds of years before the Tang Dynasty. I fully respect Japanese culture but to say that hiragana is Japan’s own culture/creation is rather misleading. I find katakana to be more of a Japanese invention.

[@leogogo7041]

@un fudanshi cualquiera Hiragana is a phonetic characters, Chinese also has a set of auxiliary phonetic characters, but using English alphabet, the shape and pronunciation of the hiragana is similar to some Chinese characters, which is helpful for memory. The shape of kanji is easy, and the pronunciation need more practice. The most difficult thing is Japanese grammar, which is quite different. Chinese grammar is even closer to English.

[@adognamedsally]

How the heck does 部 become へ?! That seems like a stretch to me! 「部」は「へ」になりますか？すごい。信じがたいですね。

それは日本人の私達でも困惑しています。 That is confused even Japanese people おそらく、それぞれの地方で漢字の略し方が違って平仮名を統一して作った時にどれとも似ていない形にしたんでしょうね I think that "before Hiragana letter" has a slang, and then 部 become へ when we makes Hiragana of national letter and then 部 become へ when we makes Hiragana of national letter Sorry my bad English
