japanase is easier, even i have a plugin for some programs that lenme use japanase characters, i write down in romaji (in occidental letters) then it changes it to hiragana syllabes, when i finish with the word, i press space then i can choose to change it to katakana syllabes (katakana is used for foreign words) or kanjis that are those signs that come from chinese, the ideographs
