    Hiragana is a phonetic alphabet that was developed in the ninth century to simplify writing. It
    nowadays is mainly used for native Japanese words. Hiragana are derived from more
    complex kanji and each hiragana represents a syllable. A total of 46 hiragana is used in
    contemporary Japanese writing.
