	Japanese language and computers - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		In relation to the Japanese language and computers many adaptation issues arise, some unique to Japanese and others common to languages which have a very large number of characters.
		However, the number of characters in Japanese is much more than 256, and hence Japanese cannot be encoded using only one byte, and Japanese is thus encoded using two or more bytes, in a so-called "double byte" or "multi-byte" encoding,.
		On modern computers, the reading of characters is usually entered first, then an input method editor (IME), also sometimes known as a front-end processor, shows a list of candidate kanji that are a phonetic match, and allows the user to choose the correct characters.

		In Japanese, all moras are pronounced with equal length and loudness.Syllables can consist of one or two moras, depending on the presence or absence of a long vowel, a syllable-final "n", or a doubled consonant (really a glottal stop), each of which adds one mora to the syllable length.
		Japanese is therefore said to be a mora-timed language.In Japanese, a stressed syllable is merely pronounced at a higher pitch.
		Japanese schoolchildren are still taught introductory classes in kanbun.There was still no system for rendering Japanese in written form until the development of manyogana (万葉仮名), which used Chinese characters for their phonetic value (derived from their Chinese readings) rather than their semantic value.
