Need a Kanji Translated? Just ask!

Okay, I've got three pictures here with kanji that I cannot identify.
#1: am trying to identify the second kanji. I believe the first to be 日, but I cannot find the second one. Perhaps it's a nonstandard kanji?

#2: I am trying to identify the first kanji here. The second one I think is 者.

#3: I am looking for the third kanji here. I think the first one is 武, and the second one I think is 土.

Searching for Junko on the kanji I know has turned up with nothing. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
 
1.日曜
2.忍者
3.武士道(The second kanji is not but .)
 
Hi everyone!
I'm currently learning the Kangxi radicals in order to make it easier for me to learn kanji. But I'm stumped at the difference between radical 自 and 己, which are translated as "oneself" and "self" respectively. Is there something more to it or are they just roughly the same?
 
What does this mean?

Much appreciated 🙂:

Also is there a different style to write this in?

Seems like we had this one recently, but I don't know where it is. It's 以心伝心, and means communicating with only one's hearts and minds, without the need for words, spoken or written. It orignially was a Zen phrase, and meant for a teacher to pass on teaching of Buddhism that weren't expressed in words to a pupil's heart.
 
It's a kind of interjection and it does not have kanji.
It is always written either in hiragana or katakana.

Thanks! Could I see an example of one of these?

Also, old sumo posters were apparently written in a style called sumo moji (I tried to link to the wikipedia article I found this, but I cannot use URLs. Check the wikipedia page for edomoji and you will see an example in the sumomoji section)

Is this a style of kanji? Would it be odd to use it for hiragana or katakana? I would like to express the exclamation "Dosukoi!" for an art project I am working on, but do not know the best way to do it. I do not read nor speak Japanese, hence the basic questions. Thanks for humoring me!
 
Sumo moji(so-called Negishi-ryuu font) is a font style for both kanji and kana, so it's no problem to write hiragana and katakana using it. I don't have Negishi-ryuu font, but the followings are the similar ones to it.(These are written in Knatei-ryuu font which is used for Kabuki .)

Hello everyone,
my name is HEUER , pronunciation (in the origin country of the name) is something like ホイエレ or ホイエル ,
would there be a phonetic equivalence into kanji for that ?
i find 穂 家 獲る but it makes no sense ...
Thank you

There are so many combinations that can be read ホイエル/ホイエレ. What does "HEUER" mean originally?
 
Hello Toritoribe, and thanks to your reply

I am not very comfortable with foreign languages ,

but in german it means the tedder (the one who cut the hay) or the pay of a sailor

Thanks a bunch for the info/example! I'll show you guys my project when I'm done :)

How about 穂以得瑠? This combination can mean "getting precious stones by ears of grain". (a bit different from "tedder", though. 😌)

:-) very very fine (i would like to do that)
the pronunciation is like ホイエル ? or ほ イ トク ル ?
ho-i-e-ru or ho-i-toku-ru
(HEUER is more like ho-i-e-re ホイエレ anyway)
but I like this interpretation about the tedder
 
That's ホイエル. If you prefer ホイエレ, 穂以得礼 (getting a reword by ears of grain) can be the one. This is read as ホイエレイ(since there's no kanji that has a reading れ in Japanese), but uncommon (or sometimes unimaginable) readings are allowed as far as people's names. Anyway, you should remember people don't usually read 穂以得礼 as "ホイエレ" as far as you don't put furigana on it.
 
Many thanks

complex and subtle (for me) ...

so if write 穂以得礼 with ほいえれ above or on the right, this will be read like ホイエレ ?
 
More simply, it's OK just to put katakana in parentheses after kanji, just like 穂以得礼(ホイエレ). Hiragana and katakana are both phonograms, so ほいえれ and ホイエレ indicate quite the same pronunciation "ho i e re", similar to "HEUER" vs "heuer".

Another choice is a common Japanese surname 草刈, meaning "the one who mows grass". Although the reading is not "ho i e re" but "Ku sa ka ri", of course. ;)

:) i'm not sure to be gifted for that ... maybe to split hairs in four
(french expression ? something like to nitpick)

Finally if I write 穂以得瑠 or 穂以得礼 with (ほいえれ) ,
(or put furigana on it) I indicate the pronunciation I wish .
