furiganaOffunction

The pieces of a written word with the kana that read each kanji: 食べる read たべる is 食 (た) and べる. The kana of the word are matched against the reading, and what lies between them is the reading of the kanji before; when they cannot be matched (大人 read おとな, whose reading belongs to the word as a whole), the whole word is one piece with the whole reading. A word with no kanji is one piece with no reading. The reading may be in hiragana or katakana.
