Japanese words are fun to learn, but how about its writing system?

Typing in Japanese is not as easy as you do in English nor as you see in animes or other Japanese movies. Their typing is pretty complicated since they use three kinds of scripts: the kanji, katakana and hiragana. This is because, a long time ago, Japan didn't have its own writing system. Instead, they used the Chinese letters, which are the kanjis.

However, Japan has created their own interpretation of the Chinese characters and together with these, they created the Hiragana and Katakana writing systems.
