Japanese Numbers: The "Tricky Three" (4, 7, and 9)
In Japanese, these three numbers have two different pronunciations. Choosing the right one depends on cultural history and clarity.
The Number 4: "Shi" vs. "Yon"
The Problem: The word Shi sounds exactly like the Japanese word for "Death." Because of this, Japanese people often avoid using "Shi" in daily life to stay away from bad luck.
The Safe Choice: Yon is the most common and safest reading. Use Yon for counting objects, people, and money.
The Time Exception: This is the tricky part! When talking about time, we use a shortened version:
4 o'clock is always Yoji (Not Shi-ji or Yon-ji).
April is always Shigatsu.
The Number 7: "Shichi" vs. "Nana"
The Problem: Shichi is the traditional reading, but it sounds very similar to Ichi (1) and Hachi (8). If you are at a busy train station or on the phone, people might misunderstand you.
The Clear Choice: Nana is much easier to hear and is used for counting almost everything (people, items, prices).
The Time Standard: Even though it's harder to hear, Shichi is still the standard for time:
7 o'clock is usually Shichiji.
July is always Shichigatsu.
The Number 9: "Ku" vs. "Kyu"
The Problem: The word Ku sounds like the Japanese word for "Suffering" or "Agony." Like the number 4, it is sometimes avoided in hospitals or gift-giving.
The Standard Choice: Kyu is the modern, standard way to say 9. Use it for counting items, people, and most other things.
The Time Exception: Just like the others, time uses the "old" sound:
9 o'clock is always Kuji (Not Kyu-ji).
September is always Kugatsu.
The Golden Rule for Beginners
If you aren't sure, follow this simple pattern:
For Time (Hours and Months): Use the short/traditional sounds (Shi, Shichi, Ku). Just remember that 4 o'clock is the special "Yoji"!
For Everything Else: Use the longer/safer sounds (Yon, Nana, Kyu).

Thank you for joining the last lesson of April.
It was great to see you! In this lesson, we worked on Intermission 2, Practice 4: How many do you know about Japan? We learned vocabulary related to temples and shrines, as well as vocabulary for parts of the face. You also shared your story about visiting Nara.
We had a conversation using the phrases you have studied so far, and every time, I can see your willingness to speak Japanese on your own. I also loved seeing your motivation to speak Japanese without depending on my hints.
In our next lesson, we will focus on the verb list in Appendix 2 and make simple sentences using those verbs—present tense, past tense, negative forms, and so on.
I'm sorry the lesson went past the scheduled time, but it was such a good class that I didn’t notice. I hope you felt the same way.
Have a wonderful week, and I look forward to seeing you in May!
