Question

The nkf tool detects and converts between encodings of this language. The FONTX and FONTX2 drivers were created by lepton to support displaying this language on the DOS/V (“doss-V”) architecture. The infamously hard-to-parse file ken_all.csv (“ken underscore all dot c-s-v”), which Paul McCann calls “one of the most hated files on Earth”, is a list of postal data in this language. Corrupted or garbled text caused by using the wrong character encoding is known by a term from this language. This is the [emphasize] second language in the three-letter acronym (15[1])describing the (15[1])(*) “Unified (10[2])Ideographs” that make up the majority of all Unicode characters. Like ASCII art, text art using this language’s Shift JIS encoding is popular on the 2channel message board. For 10 points, many encodings have trouble dealing with what language’s large (10[1])number of kanji? ■END■

ANSWER: Japanese (The term for corrupted text is “mojibake”. The three-letter acronym is CJK, which stands for Chinese, Japanese, and Korean.)
