Brief
In brief, in Modern Japanesse there are 3 main writing styles, all of which are used interchangeably - Kanji, Hiragana and Katakana. The Hiragana and Katakana both belong to the same phonological syllabary alphabet and are both independent kana systems - each consisting of 46 base characters, but have different linguistic utilities:


 * Kanji: Ideographic/logogrammatic characters originating from China that have a base meaning and can be combined with other kanji to create new meanings.
 * Hiragana: Simple characters, mainly used for words for which there are no kanji, including particles and suffixes.
 * Katakana: In modern Japanese, katakana are mainly use for transcription of words from foreign languages (ie English) and occasionally kanji words, onomatopoeia, technical and scientific terms amongst others.

Because Katakana and Hiragana are both used prominently within the Digimon franchise, a table of both Hiragana and Katakana characters is listed below in order to facilitate fabricating transcripted text when editing on Wikimon and as a local source of interpretation of how the writing system operates for some individuals.
