If u see the history books from the Edo period they use Chinese but they invented the first use of hiragana to reduce the number of strokes but need 2 hiragan word to form one chinese word(that time kanji not even named yet)

Later katagana is offically used just before the WWII period(finally kanji is named to be implemented after WWII).

So its actually the ancestral chinese migrate there & had invented the langauge of thier own in jap. Wink

I dunno for sure...but my guess is that it is...and still continue to be a problem unless MOE brings up the standard....instead of coming up with some crap that allows people to take the easy way out...

on a side note....I think some youngsters are more familiar with the japanese and korean language than their mother tongue...so who's fault? Laughing Mr. Green

Some Chinese Singaporeans think not speaking Mandarin is cool.
They think speaking English very high class. But actually they are not speaking English. They are like me speaking Singlish.
Speaking Singlish really high class meh???
