im refering to the 3 languages here.,though i dont know if there's a language called korean or not.and if there is,then whats the difference between these 3 languages and the way they are written?ive never been able to tell the difference which is primarily becasuse i dont know any of these languages.is the difference between them 'not so huge' like the one between spanish and portugese?they dont 'sound' too different and the way they are written looks pretty similar too.

so is there a difference at all between these 3 languages?

There is Korean it's an independent language, I used to know some words here and there in my Tae Kwon Doe days....but thats as far as I know....

ok phonetically korean and japanese are similar, but since japanese uses kanji(chinese characters) it's closer in that regard to chinese. Korean writing is independent of both.

are chinese and japanese similar when it comes to speaking?and is spoken korean independent of both of them too?

no japanese and chinese are very different when it comes to phonetics, and korean is closer to japanese than chinese
