Hiragana
The essential Japanese writing system.
Phonetic: each character represents a syllable.
All words can be written in hiragana and many textbooks require the ability to read it.
Hiragana is also used in furigana, a reading aid that displays the sounds of kanji characters.
Katakana
Like hiragana, katakana is a phonetic writing system.
These characters are used for foreign words (e.g. アメリカ -> amerika -> America / タクシー -> takushī -> taxi)
