Really not clear

[edit]
  • I don't understand why an arrow to Japan, it could go to Tibet, and then to Mongolia, followed by Korea, but japanese characters are 100% chineses derivated
  • language title is not clear too, as austronesian languages come from china by east of china, only writting systems come from india to south-east Asia and then austronesian areas.
  • The source is not more descriptive and doesn't cite any sources...Popolon (talk) 23:32, 3 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
I reread parts of article concerned, they made arrows from China to Japan, Korea and Vietnam, as both used chinese han characters, but no relationship between indic writting and those writting. Only Hangeul in Kora could be related to traditionnal mongolian (khalkha syllabic/Mongol bitchig) writting that is derivated from indic one. I don't understand they made this erroneous red arrow from china to vietnam/japan as a continuous move of the same writting. Popolon (talk) 23:47, 3 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
