Does "exorcism" have a different symbol in Korean than it does in Chinese?

i don't know

but i'm sure of..

1. VERY Rarely, Unknown letter

2. korean doesn't use chinese letter (and almost korean can't write chinese letter, and me too)

3. not base letter (=root letter?)

baff

I can't write them either. Maybe my name at a push.

 

So..... Japan and China use Kanji, but Koreans use Hanja? Maybe.

Is that correct?

all of one from china but calling name is different

so.

Japanese call chinese letter Kanji (but little different mean compared original chinese mean)

 

korean call chinese letter Hanja (many hanja mean like original chinese letter mean)

but korean use 'Hangle' that is so comport. So, they don't use chinese letter

 

chinese call chinese letter Hànzì (ha~n z~i --....you know about 4 chinese tone? i know about that but can't explain anymore)

(i sure they don't call chinese letter Kanji, because they can't say like Kanji)

 

p.s -0-? main point of post is about "you know east asia?"

but they(ah...only one guy..) post "what is asia?"   lol

baff

Intresting, I don't know about Chinese four tone.

I noticed that Thai has it's own tone, but have never worked it out.

While no expert on asian culture i do know that the verbal languages are fairly simple to learn while the writen ones take a life time.  The younger guys (20-30's) often have to ask their elders what certain words (on paper) mean as they are uncommon.

 

As opposed to Romans ones that are generaly easy to learn on paper but rather difficult to learn verbaly.

right

most of verbal languages in east asian is Very simple and easy

i start learn hangle(used languages in korea) verbal languages at 1~2year from my birth but writing at 3~4year from my birth

and other asian nations child will do

p.s but a little difference in each nation and i know only about hangle(used in korean) so, other nations languages i can't answer exactly

um... it is verbal thing and i'm not chinese (i learn chinese a little amount in school at 1year T.T) so i can't say much infomation

hopefully, you can understand under picture mean.

1. maybe...?? (i'm don't have confidence)

chinese got english languages fast 10times compared korean or japanese

because chinese are familiar with english

2.'BASICALLY' chinese has four tones

formally saying chinese has four tones

but not at all (some reign has 6tones 10tones ...and so on)
