Kanji a Day #2…and counting

This is the part that I thought it was just like doodling and I think the easiest set of characters you can ever learn. Right. Enjoy it while it lasts. Start COUNTING!

  1. いち
  2. さん
  3. よん(し)
  4. ろく
  5. なな(しち)
  6. はち
  7. きゅう
  8. じゅう

Now the Kanji equivalent:

Waa is that it? No. Let’s keep going…

  • 十 + 一 = 十一  (11)
  • 十 + 二 = 十二  (12)
  • 。。。
  • 十 + 十 = 二十  (20)

Nope. That’s not all.

  • 十 + 四 = 十四  read as じゅうよん not  じゅうし
  • 十 + 七 = 十七  read as じゅうなな not  じゅうしち

And it gets funkier:

  • 100 はゆく
  • 1, 000 せん
  • 10, 000 まん
  • 100, 000 じゅうまん
  • 1, 000, 000 はやくまん
  • 10, 000, 000 せんまん
  • 100, 000, 000    いちおく

Say what now? Told yah, it gets funkier unless you look at it this way:

  • 100 はゆく
  • 1000 せん
  • 1 | 0000 [いち]まん
  • 10 | 0000 じゅうまん
  • 100 | 0000 はやくまん
  • 1000 | 0000 せんまん
  • 1 | 0000 0000    いちおく

Got it? 10 new characters already! Our kanji total so far: 11. Kyaaaaaaa…
