What changed
- UI and audio
Now we have included Japanese Language! It's the hardest language to implement by far, because there's multiple way to write a word. For example:
出張 means business trip
In hiragana it could be written しゅっちょう
To write that in Hiragana, you could write it one by one per character, like this si lyu ltu ti lyo u
(where the small hiragana character need to be written with prefix l or x)
In this case, there's multiple way to write し, which is si, shi, or ci. To write ゅ, you could type lyu, or xyu To write っ, you could type ltu, ltsu, xtu, xtsu To write ち, you could type ti, or chi To write ょ, you could type lyo, or xyo To write う, you could type u, wu, whu
To make matter worse, there's a shortcut to write しゅ, together it could be typed as syu, or shu.
And the hardest part is this っちょ. You could write it together as ttyo (with double t). Or it could be ccyo, or ccho. Or you could write it a little bit separately, like ttilyo, ttixyo, cchilyo, cchixyo. Or you could write this っ first as ltu, ltsu, xtu, xtsu, and write this ちょ as tyo, cyo, cho, or even separately tilyo, tixyo, chilyo, chixyo.
I hope with this update, it's already covered all this stuff. If you are fluent in Japanese Typing, please do try it!
