How do you spell in Kanji?

You can't spell in Kanji. Kanji are characters used in the Japanese writing system to represent words and concepts, not letters.

Here's how the Japanese writing system works:

* Kanji: These characters, borrowed from Chinese, represent words or concepts. There are thousands of them, and they can have multiple readings depending on the context.

* Hiragana: These characters represent syllables, like "a," "ka," or "shi." They are used to write grammatical particles, verb endings, and words that don't have a Kanji.

* Katakana: These characters are also used to represent syllables, and they are mostly used for foreign words, onomatopoeia, and emphasis.

To write a word in Japanese, you often need to use a combination of all three writing systems. For example, the word "猫" (neko) is written with the Kanji "猫" for "cat," but the word "食べる" (taberu) is written with the Hiragana characters "たべる."

So, instead of "spelling" in Kanji, we say "writing" in Kanji.

Do you have a specific word you'd like to know how to write in Kanji?
