Comment (by ryelle):

 Looks like this is also an issue in Korean (see
 [https://github.com/WordPress/wporg-
 parent-2021/issues/150#issuecomment-2283043658 related comments here]) —
 and there @gonom9 suggests adding `word-break: keep-all;` to keep words
 together. This works for Korean because there are spaces between words,
 trying to add this to Japanese created overflow.

 I think the solution in [https://github.com/WordPress/wordpress-
 develop/pull/7209 PR 7209] is best for Japanese, plus a separate CSS rule
 for Korean adding `word-break: keep-all;`.
