Abstract
The article presents the results of a scientific study using a questionnaire in the Google form system, in order to identify selected (preferred) types of fonts and writing styles of graphic forms of the Japanese language, used in the process of teaching Japanese ideographic writing. The online survey “The influence of styles, types and forms of the ideographic sign of the Japanese language on cognitive perception” was conducted in two groups of interviewees: 1 group of schoolchildren aged 14 - 17 years old in a general education institution, 26 people; Group 2 university students 18 – 23 years old, 74 people. The results of the study showed the preferred attitude of students to the kyokashotai font in 82.8% of the respondents for writing hieroglyphs in the statutory style, 78.6% of the surveyed students chose the kyokashotai font for writing Hiragana and Katakana alphabet characters. When comparing the signs of the Hiragana alphabet and the signs of the Katakana alphabet written in different styles and fonts, schoolchildren chose kyokashotai as the most preferred font for calligraphic writing (68.6%). The calligraphy style chosen for teaching ideographic writing of the Japanese language in two groups of respondents is the authorized kaishotai style (80%). When developing and publishing textbooks and textbooks using Japanese fonts and writing styles of ideographic signs, it is nec-essary to take into account the preferred cognitive perception of Russian-speaking students, their choice mainly of the kyokashotai font in the statutory style, on average 76.6%.
