NUMBERS |
THE NUMBER SYSTEM
Japan possesses two number systems, one of which is native in origin, the other Chinese.
The Japanese numbers are used in statements concerning age, and when discussing quantities of objects; the Chinese numbers are used for measures, money and distances. Beyond 10, only Chinese numerals are used.
Japanese-Chinese
1 = hitotsu, hito-1 = ichi
2 = futatsu, futa-2 = ni
3 = mittsu, mi-3 = san
4 = yotsu, yon yo-4 = shi
*5 = itsutu, itsu-5 = go
6 = muttsu, mu-6 = roku
7 = nanatsu, nana-7 = shichi
8 = yattsu, ya-8 = hachi
9 = kokonotsu, kokono9 = ku
10= to, to-10 = ju
11 = ju-ichi
12 = ju-ni
20 = niju
30 = sanju
40 = yonju
50 = goju
60 = rokuju
70 = nanaju
80 = hachiju
90 =kyuju
100 = hyaku
1000 = sen
10000 = man
Because in Japanese shi is the root of a word meaning death, the Chinese shi for 4 is rarely used; more commonly employed is the Japanese yon. The use of the two systems is complex, but the karateka will generally get by with a knowledge of the ten basic Chinese numbers.
