Question about kanji. Are these universal? I mean do they mean the same thing in Chinese and Japanese? #languages

@farah sometimes you can sort of get the gist of something in chinese if you know enough kanji but there has been some drift between languages

@farah They tend to be similar, but the languages have evolved past the same meanings now.
