Culture defines the lifestyle of a group of people or simply the way of life of people.
The Chinese, Japanese and the Koreans have a lot of these culture or lifestyle in common. But history has showed that majority of these cultures were adopted from the Chinese culture. Below are two significant lifestyle the Japanese - kr adopted from the Chinese.
THE WRITINGS/LANGUAGE PRONUNCIATIONS
Chinese has a long history (nearly 8,000 years). Chinese is a kind of Hieroglyphic.
Japan didn’t have its own writing system until over 1,200 years ago (Chinese Tang Dynasty). Japanese character are mostly from Chinese character parts(radicals). You can find a lot of similar characters
between Chinese and Japanese. And Japanese Chinese(called kanji) is almost the same as classic Chinese character, which is used in Taiwan and Hong Kong now. Ancient Korea used Chinese characters in its writing system. Now they have their own alphabet which looks completely different from Chinese character. But the pronunciation are still much similar
THE CLOTHINGS
People erroneously believe that the cheongsam is the traditional
clothing of China,but It is only a symbol of China. Hanfu is
actually the one though not too many
people know that. Kimono is the
traditional clothing of Japan. Ancient
Japanese created their own clothing
basic on Chinese Hanfu during Sui
and Tang Dynasty. Hanbok is Korean
traditional clothing. Korean
combined their ancient clothing and
Chinese Hanfu and that was how
Hanbok was created. Really innovative but the idea was modified from the Chinese culture.
