well think you just should ask the friewnd to come with you and ask them if they can take a lieing scan I have personally studied Japanese and Chinese Calligraphy. Each character has an individual meaning, and when put together with eachother, they can be translated as "friendship". (Chinese) They both meant "friendship", if you missed one of them then the meaning would be "friend" or something not means "friendship"

In Japanese, the Kanji alphabet uses mostly Chinese characters that represent ideas instead of sounds. Therefore, each kanji character can be read phonetically either in Japanese or Chinese.
