Whenever I see Shinpachi-san 's posts in Japanese, I remember that unlike English or Persian, you can't delete a "Character" if you wrote something wrong, you have to erase entire sentence, or even paragraph to correct it!

IMHO, this is what makes Japanese hard!
 
This is Japanese kid's play I used to enjoy -

Each character is independent = 各文字は自立しています = kaku moji wa jiritsu site imasu

The "kaku moji wa jiritsu site imasu" can be also written like these with same pronunciation -
核門司葉自立仕手今巣
格茂治歯地律詩停升
各藻児派事理津子弟増
etc.
 
Masao Kusakari (70) is one of the most popular actors in Japan.
His father was said a GI and died in the Korean War. Masao grew up with no more information about his father and his family in the US since 1952.

Today, NHK broadcasted a documentary that it had found out his family in the US last year and Masao met his father's sister and her family well for the first time in his life. Well done, NHK
