@oristarA,
"Have you noticed that there are many Chinese characters used by the Japanese or in the historical relics of Korea? If the Chinese language is in a language family different from that of Japanese (the word "Jap" is a pejorative and considered an insult in the American language) and Korean, well, as you've pointed out, it is the close oriental cultural background that makes my reading of the article easy."
There you are . . . you didn't do badly with that paragraph.
