We'll add any reasonable word to this list, and we will be happy to translate your personal phrase into Chinese.
This page also relates to Chinese glyphs, Chinese Hanzi, Japanese Kanji, Japanese symbols, Chinese phrases, Japanese words art, Chinese philosophies, Japanese written-language, Chinese written-language, Chinese hieroglyphics, Japanese writing, Chinese writing and Chinese ideograms. Some may incorrectly associate this with Chinese Alphabet, Chinese letters, Japanese letters, or an Asian alphabet. However, the term "alphabet", and the idea of "letters" only apply to the Latin/Roman letters used in many western languages. So-called Asian or Oriental Languages (especially Sino-Tibetan) use one or more "characters" or "symbols" to express words or ideas. This makes Chinese characters, Japanese Kanji, and Korean Hanja more of an art than just written languages.
