Japanese has two counting systems: the Sino-Japanese and the native Japanese.

Sino-Japanese numbers (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

Native Japanese numbers (often paired with everyday items):

• 1 = hitotsu, 2 = futatsu, 3 = mittsu, 4 = yottsu, 5 = itsutsu
• 6 = muttsu, 7 = nanatsu, 8 = yattsu, 9 = kokonotsu, 10 = too

Some numbers have alternative readings to avoid sounds linked to bad luck.

The average price for a Japanese lesson in Denholme is around £25/h per hour.

The final cost depends on a few important elements:

• The student's proficiency (complete beginner, intermediate, or advanced)
• Your teacher's background (native speaker, certified instructor, university degree)
• Lesson format (remote, in-person, or hybrid)
• How often and how long (weekly sessions, intensive courses, or exam preparation)

Many tutors offer discounted rates for booking multiple lessons in advance.

Japanese presents unique challenges, but each element follows clear rules once understood.

Key differences from English:

• Three writing systems: hiragana (46 characters), katakana (46 characters), and thousands of kanji
• Grammar structure: sentences follow Subject-Object-Verb order, not Subject-Verb-Object like English
• No articles or plurals: there is no distinction between singular and plural nouns

On the positive side: spelling is phonetic, and verb conjugation follows predictable patterns.
