This is the most complex kanji with a whopping 84 strokes. It is composed of three "cloud" (雲) characters on top of a triple "dragon" character (龘). Also meaning "the appearance of a dragon in flight", it has been pronounced おとど otodo, たいと taito, and だいと daito. According to this site http://learnjapanesepod.com/the-most-complex-kanji/) the kanji was invented by a playwright for a play during the Edo period. However this fact hasn’t been substantiated so it is doubtful as to whether this could be recognized as an official kanji.

このかんじはたいへんですよ。

Katakana Analysis

The use of Katakana is wide and varied. The 46 characters are not only used for the writing of foreign words in order to make them loaned words, they are also used to express emphasis. Katakana is also utilize to create onomatopoeic words, which the Japanese language is filled with. This set of characters has another function and that is to lend sophistication to a given publication. In most of the fashion magazines the entire thing is filled with katakana words even when there is a Japanese word for it they will tend to simply use the English equivalent. The increasing used of katakana within modern Japan is rather interesting and it sheds some light to the complex history of the language.

ズonomatopoeia
ペリウム loan word
ヘヤ sophistication.

The reason why there are several uses for katakana is to allow greater flexibility within the language. This allows Japanese to adapt to changing situations. Different books explain katakana differently because the uses of it are so varied that multiple explanations are possible.

そこきみわるい くも。

A strange cloud formation was seen over the skies of Moscow a few days ago. The explanation that has been given is that "Several fronts have been passing through Moscow recently, there was an intrusion of the Arctic air too, the sun was shining from the west — this is how the effect was produced" which was given by an official spokesperson for Moscow's weather department.

Code Geass

This is my favorite anime. It is the story of a banished prince, in an alternate universe where the world is ruled by three super powers, Britannia, Euro Universe, and the Chinese Federation. Lelouch gains a power known as geass, the power of kings, from a mysterious girl named C.C. This power allows him to impose his will on anyone. Using this he begins a war against Britannia, which is ruled by his father the Emperor. He amasses a large army coded named the Black Knights, and he assumes the identity of Zero

The last airbender

This is an american cartoon that is styled like an anime. It is simply amazing. The epic structure of it is comparable to The Lord of the Rings. The show is 61 episodes long and it is separated into three seasons. Now the series is being taken to the big screen

Japanese class

It is by far my favorite class even though it is the most challenging . But that is one of the main reasons why I am taking this class. Japanese is barely my third language, Spanish and English being the other two. I simply love Asian culture as a whole, but especially Japanese culture (anime can be blamed for that discrepancy). I hope to be able to pick up the language quickly, it would be nice to watch anime without the annoying subtitles.
