How to count from 1 ~ 100 in Japanese?☺️
Today is september 11, 2022
Let’s begin with numbers. I won’t use any kana for a time, we’ll introduce them later at a slow pace.
1 = ichi
2 = ni
3 = san
4 = yon (shi)
5 = go
6 = roku
7 = nana (shichi)
8 = hachi
9 = kyuu (ku)
10 = juu
The words in parentheses are alternative names for those numbers. Sometimes those names are evaded due to the fact that they’re pronounciations for other words regarded as unlucky words, like shi which is the same sound for death and ku which is the same sound for suffering.
These are very simple to work with, and the dynamics to build them are pretty much the same as those of roman numerals. What we do is that we take juu -10- and right after it we place a single number, like this:
11 = juu ichi
12 = juu ni
13 = juu san
14 = juu yon
15 = juu go
16 = juu roku
17 = juu nana
18 = juu hachi
19 = juu kyuu
For these numbers we take a very similar approach to the previous ones, just inverting the order. Like this:
20 = ni juu
30 = san juu
40 = yon juu
50 = go juu
60 = roku juu
70 = nana juu
80 = hachi juu
90 = kyuu juu
For 100 we use hyaku, and in order to make bigger numbers from it we just use it in a similar fashion to juu, with some exceptions:
200 = ni hyaku
300 = sanbyaku
400 = yon hyaku
500 = go hyaku
600 = roppyaku
700 = nana hyaku
800 = happyaku
900 = kyu hyaku
For 1000 we say sen or issen. To build the multiple integers of 1000 we put the name of the integer before sen, with some exceptions:
2000 = ni sen
3000 = san zen
4000 = yon sen
5000 = go sen
6000 = roku sen
7000 = nana sen
8000 = hassen
9000 = kyuu sen
So now, we can build any integer number from 0 to 9999:
46 = yon juu roku
357 = san byaku go juu nana
7569 = nana sen go hyaku roku juu kyuu
Notice how the name looks like we are adding 7000 + 500 + 60 + 9.
I’m gonna leave it here, today. Hope you may find this useful, and I’ll see you soon :3

... and English, too XD 'cause my native language is actually Spanish, but I think that studying a 3rd language in my 2nd language might be more interesting... I'm probably wrong, I hope I'm not, let's cross fingers dXD (that just looks like an XD with a cap).
It's been a lot of time since my last French class, so I'm retaking it on my own now. Today, I practiced the pronunciation of the "most frequent" syllables, and I also started studying the definite article le, la, and l'.
So, here is what I read today:
The definitive article in French has a gender, which must match the gender of its noun. I don't remember if there are any gender neutral words in French, but the book I'm studying from kind of suggests that all words in French are either femenine or masculine... please correct me on that if we're wrong. Anyways, here are some examples of femenine nouns:
la banque (the bank)
la boutique (the store or shop)
la femme (the woman, wife)
la jeune fille (the girl)
la langue (the language)
la voiture (the car)
Next, we have masculine nouns:
le chat (the cat)
le chien (the dog)
le cours (the class or course)
le frére (the brother)
le garçon (the boy)
le livre (the book)
It seems like all femenine nouns end in -e, however this is not a general rule. There are femenine words that do not end in -e, for instance think of l’infant (the child) which can stand for a boy or a girl, notice too that distraction (amusement) is also femenine -it goes with la- and yet it doesn’t end in -e, then we also have la fleur (the flower), la fourmi (the ant), la radio (the radio), and many more.
So, yeah... guessing the gender of a noun in French can be hard.
Now, in regards to the shorter form of the definite article l’, we use it when our noun starts with a vowel or with mute h so that we pronounce the whole thing together. Two straight forward examples are l´emploi (the job) and l’homme (the man)... which ends in -e but is masculine...
Alright, I think that’s enough for this post already... I don’t want to make too long entries.

Edit: I made the assumption that as I left the original posters name on the photo and the fact it is a photo people could deduce that it was not my own.
I found this image on Pinterest and thought it would be helpful, I attempted to find the original to reblog but the name @ceebycee does not come up when I search it and I was unable to find the original.
I do not claim this is my post and I am not trying to steal someone else's just thought that it could be helpful.
I'm sorry if I have caused any issues or offend anyone in sharing this information.

Recently had a follower ask me how I study multiple languages at once and it inspired me to make this post!
So, here are some tips on how to study multiple languages (from someone whose studying 9+ languages atm!):
If you try to study all your languages all the time, you’re going to go crazy, and you’re not going to get anywhere (trust me, tried it before). Categorize your target languages based on importance and urgency. Personally, I use the terms primary, secondary, casual, and “dabbled in” (lol) to describe my languages, ranging from most important to least. Primary languages should be studied the most, and casual languages should be studied the least, which brings me to my next point.
Please, please, PLEASE, make some sort of schedule or to-do list, it will make your life so much easier, I swear. As I said previously, prioritize your languages and study the most important ones the most and the least important ones the least. Personally, I like to create a weekly plan on what languages I’ll be studying and on what days. For example, Chinese is one of my primary languages, so I study it every single day, while Italian is one of my more casual languages, so I study it every few days. All in all, you don’t need to (and shouldn’t) study all your target languages in one day. I would even go as far as saying that you should study some languages on a biweekly basis, rather than every week, if that’s something that would work for you.
This is sort of similar to my last point, but it’s still something I wanted to address in more detail. It’s pretty difficult to create an accurate schedule if you don’t have a specific and detailed goal in mind. Ask yourself questions like, what languages do I need to learn the quickest (ex. an important trip coming up that requires you to know the lang)? How fluent do I want to get? Why am I learning this language (for fun, to talk with natives, to watch your favorite show w/o subtitles, etc)? Aligning your schedule and mindset with these goals will help you to keep focused on your languages!
One highly underated and underdone language learning technique is immersion! Immersion is, well, exactly what it sounds like: it’s when you immerse yourself in the language. Good ways to immerse yourself is through listening to music or podcast in your target language or watching videos, movies, or TV shows (+ its fun!!). Of course, the best way the immerse yourself in a language would be through moving to a country that speaks the language or speaking to native speakers. However, if you’re broke and socially anxious (like yours truly), this isn’t always an option. Also, one thing that I like to do is to change my phone language to whatever language I’m studying at the moment. It really helps!
Finally, don’t stress yourself out! Language learning is supposed to be fun and enjoyable, not something that makes you want to curl up in a ball and cry. I’ve made this mistake many times, and it just hurts you in the long run. If you are stressed out by the amount of languages you are learning, STUDY LESS LANGUAGES! Seriously, it’s okay! You can always come back to them at a later time.
Overall, just enjoy the process and have fun with it! Studying languages should be enjoyable to you, and should make your life better, not more stressful.
