FAQ's
🔢 What are the Japanese numbers from 1 to 10?
Counting in Japanese involves two distinct systems with different uses.
The Sino-Japanese system (the most common system):
- 1 = ichi, 2 = ni, 3 = san, 4 = shi or yon, 5 = go
- 6 = roku, 7 = shichi or nana, 8 = hachi, 9 = kyuu or ku, 10 = juu
The native system (used for counting objects without specific counters):
- 1 = hitotsu, 2 = futatsu, 3 = mittsu, 4 = yottsu, 5 = itsutsu
- 6 = muttsu, 7 = nanatsu, 8 = yattsu, 9 = kokonotsu, 10 = too
The variations for 4, 7, and 9 exist due to superstitions around similar-sounding words.
💰 What is the price of Japanese lessons in Christchurch?
A private Japanese tutor in Christchurch charges an average of £18/h per session.
Prices can differ based on key criteria:
- The student's proficiency (JLPT N5 through N1 preparation)
- The tutor's qualifications and experience (native speaker, certified instructor, university degree)
- How you take the lesson (online via video call, at your home, or at the tutor's location)
- How often and how long (one-off lessons or regular packages)
Many tutors offer discounted rates for booking multiple lessons in advance.
📚 What makes Japanese challenging for beginners?
Japanese differs greatly from English, yet its logic is consistent and learnable.
What makes Japanese distinct:
- Three writing systems: hiragana (46 characters), katakana (46 characters), and thousands of kanji
- Grammar structure: verbs come at the end of sentences, which feels backwards at first
- No articles or plurals: Japanese skips "the" and "a" entirely
Encouragingly: once you learn hiragana, you can read any word written in it correctly.
