女 is pronounced in various ways... For example, they're pronounced as おんな (Onna) when alone and it means woman. But if it comes in a word like for example 彼女 (Kanojo) meaning girl, it is pronounced as じょ (Jo).
@@kiriso_oneka Yes, it has two meanings.. depends upon context. I used 'Girl' here to match the context I'm speaking of, which isn't a pronoun. Eg 1: "誰この彼女は?" In here, the word means 'girl' and translates to "Who's this girl?" Eg 2: "...そして彼女は僕の友達です大学校で" Here, the word means 'she' and translates to "...and she's my friend from my university"
@@riiku01 Chinese Kanji have more characters overall, but Japanese Kanji could have multiple ways of reading it with very distinct pronunciation. And in Japanese, hiragana katakana and Kanji are used in sentences combined.
Technically since “女” has multiple readings (onyomi and kunyomi) it can either be pronounced as “jo” (ex. “少女”), onna (ex. 女の子) and “me” (ex. 乙女/少女) So maybe japanese isn’t that easy…
@@Kishikato Kunoichi (Japanese: くノ一, also くのいち or クノイチ) is a Japanese cant term for "woman" (女, onna).[1][2] In popular culture, it is often used for female shinobi or practitioner of ninjutsu (ninpo). The term was largely popularized by novelist Yamada Futaro in his novel Ninpō Hakkenden (忍法八犬伝) in 1964.
Its more complex than that. The 'nyou' 'nyo' reading is (1) a borrowed reading from its origanal chinese sound and or (2) because of the character combined with it to form another word. (3) 女 is a combination of 3 characters く ノ ー You overlap them together. It is read ku•no•ichi, which literally means Woman-ninja
@@AndRockLuck I would say logographs or logograms. Chinese characters can stand for words, but often they get combined with other characters to produce words. So I don't feel comfortable referring to it as a word bank but there's got to be another terminology that is more suitable.
As someone who has been learning Japanese for a while, I've never been told by a woman they wouldn't date me because I'm studying Japanese. They don't really talk to me at all actually because I'm at home learning Japanese.
If I had a nickel for every alphabet I learned that had an H looking letter be pronounced "N", I'd have two nickels, which isn't a lot, but it's weird that it happened twice
It’s lowkey made learning the hiragana so helpful when a lot of the characters are pretty distinct when with Korean it seems a lot harder to differentiate for me

I just learned how to say 女 in Japanese and the katakana for ki which does look like a key. The hiragana for it does too. My brain can use that as a connection. I'm not going to lie, but it's harder for me to hold on to the characters of the Japanese alphabet. 😢
Yea im learning japanese and none of the letters look like what your talking about, and you also have to learn 3 different ways of writing which is:Hiragana, katakana and kanji.

"woman" was the only one i got right 😂

THAT WAS SO HARD!
Fun fact: Women in Japanese (女) is also women/girl in Chinese just with different pronunciations

I was wrong every time😂
Me thinking that the second one is “t”
Him: correct it’s “ki”
Me: 👁️👄👁️
Easy to guess,but I still forgot the onyomi(or even kunyomi),still learning the N4 kanji tho
"ki" means (among couple of other things) a tree 🌳
And the character looks somewhat like tree
(Yes I know it's a phonetic hiragana character)
I speak Chinese and I know some characters, btw Japanese and Chinese characters are the same that’s why I knew what 女was.😅
Oh it's pronounced on'na or jou
Him: **nyo**

If youre friends dont give you smack just for learning japanese are they really friends??
1 looks more like a h 2 looks to me like a t 3 looks impossible
Well. it is easy fir the people who know Japanese.
As soon as I said “it’s woman” and then he said “yeah it means woman” I laughed out loud. I just learned that kanji today doing my RTK lesson.
In my native langauge "nyo" means your mom the comment under me is my sister😂😂😂😂😂
As a Japanese speaker who know all the syllables I can confirm this is doesn't work(sometimes)
