Words

There is a small but cute calendar on my wall this year.
This is the present from my mam. Therefore, there are some Chinese characters for the days and months.

Sometimes, I like Chinese characters more than English characters, because they express things very shortly. For example, the day like Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday is expressed by only one character such as "月" "火" "水". The sounds are also very short, "ge-thu" "ka" "su-i" (in Japanese).

But on the other hand, I sometimes feel that English sound is much better than Japanese sound especially in songs.
English is very rhythmic and fast. Japanese is sometimes very dull, because it can't say a word for only one note.

The character difference in languages is interesting.
