"Hiragana" that is one of element symbols of Japan.

These consist of "Japanese syllabary".
The hiragana arose from the Japanese Kanji having been transmitted by ancient China.
The Japanese hiragana was being used by women in ancient Japan at the Heian era.
Sentences of present Japan are composed by the Japanese Kanji and the hiragana.

As for Japanese sentences, everything except the Kanji consist of Hiragana.
"Okurigana" of Kanji, And the conjunctions etc. are all Hiragna.
