Feel like with Japanese having a syllablic alphabet, trying to do that in a language with a phonetic alphabet (tell me if these are the wrong terms) is less meaningful or artistic. Agree? Or is that a dumb thought?
Yeah, haikus don't really make as much sense in English. Also, the syllable restriction isn't the only aspect of a haiku, there are other conventions you're supposed to follow, so none of the bot haikus are "real" haikus anyway.
Traditional Japanese haiku consist of three phrases that contain a kireji , or "cutting word", 17 on (a type of Japanese phoneme) in a 5, 7, 5 pattern, and a kigo or seasonal reference. Similar poems that do not adhere to these rules are generally classified as senryū .

Oh? What other kinds of things? If you don't mind explaining.
