You also use kana while chinese only use kanji.

I think Chinese, Korean and Japanese writing look pretty distinct from each other.

Chinese is big and blocky as if every sign takes itself very serious. Japanese has more cuter lines ans smaller scribbles that look as if they are some kind of filler.
Korean has many circles in it.

I'm OP and my image is Japanese and Chinese.
Can you answer what language the upper is?
>>
>>72920754
I think Korean(and also Chinese, Japanese) can distinguish Japanese and Chinese, don't you?
>>
>>72921063
it has to be japanese, you guys have "lighter" letters
>>
yes, very easily
>>
>>72920708
Yeah, easily. Japanese is a lot more flowey than Chinese.

I can't tell the different between Chinese and Japanese PEOPLE though.
>>
>>72921133
Yes. Koreans in general can do it.
>>
>>72920708
上は日本語。下は中国語。

>>
>>72920708

>>72920708
Korean has circles
Chinese looks like complex blocks
Japanese looks simple and has more curves
Indian looking script is S.E. Asia

I can also kinda tell you guys apart.
>>
>>72920708
Japanese has kana, Chinese does not. It's quite easy to tell the difference.

我會

上的是日本話,下的是漢語。

比起日本話,我更喜歡漢語。

>>72926378
是的,繁體字很漂亮
>>
>>72920708
I can because I've looked into it a bit
Japanese more symbols that are simple (hiragana and katakana) and the complex symbols also tend to be simpler
>>
>>72927063
Mainland China simplified many of the radicals of their characters, so it's really the complete opposite. The Han Simplification was specifically to make their charscters less complex in an attempt to make it easier for the tens of millions of otherwise illiterate Chinese learn how to read and write.
>>
>>72927216
>of otherwise illiterate
Do you really think trad. characters would have stopped you or anyone from becoming literate.
look at hong kong, taiwan
>>
>>72920708
Jap runes have more squiggles
>>
>>72920708
Top is Japanese, bottom is Chinese. This is really easy. I'm white.

universal literacy was a mistake

the ccp did such a good job of committing the largest genocide of all time that most people don't even know they committed the largest genocide of all time
>>
>>72921063
It is very easy desu. I think most people recognize that Chinese looks neat/orderly/ancient, Japanese looks childish, and Korean looks alien.
>>
>>72920708
Top is Jap. it has Hiragana.
