Numbers & Time

Help me count! Practice Japanese numbers, prices, dates, and train times.

Numbers are survival Japanese. You need them for money, train times, hotel rooms, appointments, ages, dates, phone numbers, and asking “how much?”

Say the answer out loud. Counting becomes useful when your mouth can find the number quickly.

Counting rule: Numbers are not just math. They are tickets, bills, appointments, rooms, platforms, and time.

Real-life numbers

Numbers become useful when they become phrases.

How much?

Ikura desu ka.

How much is it?

What time?

Nanji desu ka.

What time is it?

Which platform?

Nanbansen desu ka.

Survival phrase

Counting gets you through the counter.

Nimai kudasai.
Two tickets, please.

Numbers become real when you attach them to something: tickets, people, rooms, bottles, minutes, yen, platforms, and appointments.
