[The Hopeful Talentless Program] Day 18: Learning Japanese Kanji #10, Going Beyond 700 Kanji

THE HOPEFUL TALENTLESS PROGRAM
The Hopeful Talentless Program is a program started by the VTuber, CarameltPud (aka myself) as a way to learn and develop new skills more consistently through livestreaming. The Hopeful Talentless Program is also created with the purpose of inspiring others to pursue learning new things, and show that with effort, a lot of things are achievable, even for the so-called 'talentless'.

In the words of James Anthony Froude, "You cannot dream yourself into a character; you must hammer and forge yourself one."

This is the journey of the hopeful and talentless VTuber, CarameltPud.

JAPANESE KANJI
Kanji (漢字), one of the three scripts used in the Japanese language, are Chinese characters, which were first introduced to Japan in the 5th century via the Korean peninsula.

Kanji are ideograms, i.e. each character has its own meaning and corresponds to a word. By combining characters, more words can be created. For example, the combination of "electricity" with "car" means "train". There are tens of thousands of characters, of which 2000 to 3000 are required to understand newspapers. A set of 2136 characters has been officially declared as the "kanji for everyday use".
