The Japanese writing system is based on a combination of Chinese characters (kanji) and two syllabaries: hiragana and katakana.
In Chinese, we can indicate the past tense with either the particle 了 [le] or the structure 是……的 [shì……de].
Japanese has five vowels: /a/, /i/, /u/, /e/, and /o/, which are the most basic sounds. The consonant phonemes include /p/, /b/, /d/, /k/, /g/, /t/, /m/, /n/, /r/, /s/, /z/, /h/, /j/, and /w/.
