| Japanese dictionaries | The way in which the Japanese language has changed over the past 1400 years or so since the first written records were created, to say nothing of the convoluted nature of the writing system, means that a variety of specialist dictionaries are often called for. There exist specialist dictionaries for, among other things, pre-modern Japanese terms, kanji (Chinese characters), historical or religious terms, and many many more. A relatively recent invention, perhaps not out of keeping with Japan's reputation as a centre of high technology, is the Electronic Dictionary (Japanese denshi jisho 電子辞書) which can incorporate multiple volumes into one pocket-sized device. A variety of dictionaries and related software can also be found online. (references) | ||
