The Japanese term "文字" (moji) translates to "character" or "letter" in English. It refers to the written symbols used in a language to represent sounds, words, or ideas. In the context of Japanese, "文字" encompasses various scripts, including kanji (Chinese characters), hiragana, and katakana.

Example Phrases:
文字数 (もじすう, moji-suu): This means "number of characters" and is often used in contexts such as writing, where the count of characters in a text is important, such as in essays or social media posts.
