Most writing systems start with pictographs, literal pictures representing the things, slowly they move onto the pictures being the words, the the pictures become more simplified into strokes (kanji is at this level, for reference the latest mediterranean writing system with this is in the BC), soon after the need to describe sounds themselves instead of things appears, and each of the letters becomes representative of a syllable sound (hiragana and katakana here, technically old semitic languages are at this level), then languages naturally seperate the consonants and the vowels and thats how you get the latin lettering and the arabic script. Latin lettering being the older one, and arabic only advancing to this level in the 1000s (they used to mention consonants only).
This is only as writing system.
Now lets get to another factor, pronouns, prefixes, suffixes and word reconstruction. English is a bit weird here because its a mix of languages, but arabic, french, italian are all good at this. Basically by saying one verb, you are able to construct a hundred forms each referring to the verb in a different way, like how construct, constructor, construction, reconstruct, deconstruct, constructive, etc.
Japanese has very few of these, meaning less clear information is created.
I hope this helped, ofcourse let us not forget the fact japanese has THREE fucking writing systems for one language and all of them are shit
