so heres a way you can fix it.







Stage 1



1. Click Start, and then click Control Panel.



2. Click Date, Time, Language, and Regional Options.



3. Click Add other languages.



4. Click the Languages tab. Click to select the Install files for East Asian languages check box. Insert your OS installer (win xp sp2).



5. Click Apply.



6. Click OK.



7. If you are prompted to restart your computer click Yes. If you are not prompted to restart your computer, click Start, click Shut Down, and then click Restart.







Stage 2

Like Ty said, depends. But lets assume you're using windows. Just type. And then you will see the japanese characters, like if you say A it goes あ。 And for kanji, Lets say... white, it's pronounced shiro, aye ? 白= Shiro, white.
