Japanese Symbols Translation / Kanji Tattoo Designs

The Japanese took over the ideograms, or kanji - Japanese Symbols, between the fourth and seventh centuries. At first used strictly in classical Chinese texts, the kanji were later adapted to Japanese as well.

Japanese Symbols Evolve

Under pressure from the occupying forces after the second world war, Japan's postwar Ministry of Education chose 1,850 kanji from the more than 50,000 available, for general use. This list has been revised several times since, but has in no way eliminated the use of Kanji at all. What's most amazing is that the average college graduate still needs over 3,000 Japanese Kanji symbols just to read the newspaper!
