Hiragana is one of the scripts used to write the Japanese language. Japanese was first written using "Kanji," which are what Chinese characters are called in the Japanese language. As Chinese characters were not completely suitable as the sole medium for writing Japanese, scripts such as Hiragana and Katakana were developed.
In this video series I'd like to show you the Chinese characters from which Hiragana originated. Hiragana are the simplified cursive form of the Chinese characters they originate from.
