It's pretty cool that you can count to twenty in Japanese! I have to pause and think about it since some of the numbers have two ways of being pronounced (like 4:shi　し or yon　よん, 7:nana　なな or shichi　しち, 9:ku　く or kyuu　きゅう). But I think my all time favorite was when I was able to write down the numbers from one to ten in kanji! 一、二、三、四、五、六、七、八、九、十! I was so happy with myself, I showed my mother... who was about as thrilled as a cabbage. Oh, well. rolleyes

well, we dont use japanese number to much, we write mostly in english, except sometimes and except when the sound o number used in writing or word

30 is
SAN-JUU
　三十

Think of the number before ten. So one is ichi, then you get juu, then ni-juu and so on, san-juu-hachi.

But then 100, 1000 and higher are waay different.

I could coutn to 199 and then I found out I could count farther because of the adding the ni, san infront of hyaku. And after reading this I can count above 1000. Yay!! 4laugh
