Yes, I have been studying Chinese for about five years now and I can recognize about 2700 characters. Looking at this Japanese character set, I'm guessing I know 80% or so. I always act like charts like this.
- dwohnitmok 7y agoThere's a significant number of Japanese-only or much more common in Japanese than in Chinese characters on there.
- jackklika 7y agoI've noticed the same where I can understand the basics of a Japanese program if there's subtitles. But there are some oddities like 食 being used in a verb (as in 食べる) or 行 as to go. But you still have good context and can at least understand the topic in most cases.
- wilsonthewhale 7y agoknowing Cantonese helps here, as both the verbs you mention are still common verbs in modern Cantonese.
