- Japanese is traditionally written downwards (tategaki'') and you begin reading from the top right of a page. This means that books are opened from what we would consider to be the back. Nowadays, however, books, newspapers and magazines are often written western''' style, in horizontal lines (''yokogaki'') from left to right and, in these cases, the book is opened from our (' western ) understanding of the front.
