Usage

This template marks the kanji segment as being in Japanese kanji and/or kana, which helps user agents (web browsers and so on) to display it correctly.

Further information on when to use this template: Wikipedia:Manual of Style (Japan-related articles)

Syntax:

Without lead=yes	With lead=yes
{{Nihongo|<english>|<kanji/kana>|<rōmaji>|<extra>|<extra2>}}	{{Nihongo|<english>|<kanji/kana>|<rōmaji>|lead=yes|extra=<extra>|extra2=<extra2>}}

Parameters:

• <english>. Optional. The word as translated into English. Note that this will sometimes be the actual Japanese word due to it being adopted into English.
• <kanji/kana>. Required when <rōmaji> is empty or omitted. The word as written using Japanese script (kanji, kana).
• <rōmaji>. Required when <kanji/kana> is empty. Transliteration of the Japanese word, using Hepburn Romanization.
• lead=yes. Optional. This should be used for the first instance of Japanese, usually in the lead. It gives the reader an idea what kind of non-English writing they are viewing.
• <extra>. Optional. Can be used to add a gloss (particularly if there is no English form). Can also be expressed as a named parameter, extra=
• <extra2>. Optional. Can also be expressed as a named parameter, extra2=. It is only useful in ";" definitions (extra2 will be displayed without bold, whereas text following the template will get the bold).

Error messaging

This template emits one error message of its own:

One of the positional parameters <kanji/kana> ({{{2}}}), the 'Japanese' referred to in the error message or <rōmaji> ({{{3}}}) is required for proper operation of this template. Articles with these errors are collected in ವರ್ಗ:Nihongo template errors (೦).

This error often occurs because the template is malformed:

{{Nihongo|東京タワー}} instead of {{Nihongo||東京タワー}}; 東京タワー is in {{{1}}} (<english>) instead of {{{2}}} (<kanji/kana>). To resolve this error, add the missing pipe (|) or consider using {{lang}} or {{transl}}

Because this template uses {{lang}} and {{transl}} which emit their own error messages, see the help text for those at:

Category:Lang and lang-xx template errors – for error messages emitted by {{lang}}

Category:Transliteration template errors – for error messages emitted by {{transl}}

Limitations

This cannot be used within a Wikilink in an article or in any template or other page that is transcluded into an article.
