Who invented Japanese? -

Kibi No Asomi Makibi, formerly known as Xiadao Town North, came to China with the "Ambassador to Tang" in the fifth year of Kaiyuan (7 17). He studied in Chang 'an with four teaching assistants, Zhao, and was well versed in the five classics and three histories, calendar calculation, criminal law, missing engraving, military system, array method, phonology, calligraphy and other arts. He studied in the Tang Dynasty 17, and returned to China with 1700 China classics in November of the 22nd year of Kaiyuan (734). Fang Xuan, a monk studying abroad who returned to China at the same time as Kibi No Asomi Makibi, was highly valued by Japanese Emperor Shengwu, and Kibi No Asomi Makibi was therefore highly valued, ranking official to right minister. During his stay in China, Kibi No Asomi Makibi made a thorough study of classic works and became a well-read person. After returning to China, he was worshipped by the emperor as a university teaching assistant. At that time, Japanese universities offered six subjects: Ming Jing, Article, Fa Ming, Arithmetic, Phonology and Calligraphy, with 400 or 500 students. Kibi No Asomi Makibi teaches students of six subjects all kinds of new knowledge learned from China, and teaches reading Historical Records, Hanshu and Houhanshu. Emperor Takano also learned the Book of Rites and Hanshu from him. For the inheritance of Japanese culture, one of Kibi No Asomi Makibi's most important historical achievements is that he created Japanese katakana based on some Chinese characters. These 50 Chinese characters are called "mother characters". In ancient Japan, there was no native language, and Chinese characters were used as notes to write Japanese. The famous Ye Wan Collection was written in this way, so it was called "Ye Wan's pen name". It is inconvenient to take notes in Chinese characters. Kibi No Asomi Makibi created the Japanese phonography-Katakana by using the radicals of Chinese characters. Since then, Japan has its own writing. Later, Konghai, a monk studying abroad, created a Japanese running script pen name Hiragana with Chinese running script.
