Another questions: i know there are 26( 26 right?) characters of katakana, 26 characters of Hiragana , another 7000(or somewhere around there) Kanji (which is similar with Chinese characters as i remember).

But what is furigana?

And can people "guess" what i am writing if i write a whole sentence in Hiragana (given they can see my situation)?

Finally, is it normal for Japanese to turn their back at you and walk straight away after finished the conversation? I found it's extremely annoyed, but not sure if it was just a difference in culture of not
