		<description>fact.

i mean, i'm just starting out learning japanese, but while most people in my class are complaining how much harder kanji is, i find it makes it a lot easier to read a sentence.</description>

		<description>Unless you're a native speaker, fluent in the language, or already have a really large vocabulary and are used to how Japanese people talk (something you really gotta go to Japan to pick up on well), then kanji-less text is indeed much more difficult than kana+kanji text. It just seems like all-kana would be easier because you can pronounce each character, and to some basic extent, look up words in dictionaries, though the problem arises when trying to tell where a word starts and ends. That's why kanji is helpful.</description>

		<description>You find the lack of kanji makes the game hard to read?! O_o Wow, usually, people would say the opposite... Kinda cool. 

The most kana I know is the one for "no" and "n". :P I know a few more, but what does it matter- If I don't know what the joined kana are saying, does it matter if I know what the kana stands for? :'(</description>

		<description>I'm really looking forward to this.  I tried playing in Japanese, but (despite not really reading many kanji), I found the lack of kanji made it hard to read  . . .
Please continue your hard work.</description>

		<description>i think ostrelephant sounds more clever, unless you're a seeing-eye player for a blind person and you don't feel like saying it out loud.  i think ostrelephant has a nice flow personally</description>

		<description>Ostriphant huh?  That actually sounds pretty good to me.  Ostrelephant DOES sound kind of unblanced.  Just over half of the Ostrich overtaken by the entire Elephant.</description>

		<description>Now this may be old but I thought I might make a suggestion. Uh, well if it is at all possible do not you believe that Orstiphant sounds more appealing to Ostrelephant? I can not put my finger on it, but perhaps it is related to Ostrelephants unbalanced name? Yes, you may ignore me, but I thought I wouldd just say something eventually.</description>
