Study because it makes you smarter. Every time you dive into a new topic, you're not just memorizing facts; you're building a sharper, more agile mind. The breadth of your knowledge will never be a hindrance; it will only ever propel you further in life.
Study because it opens doors. Knowledge is your ticket to new opportunities. Whether it's landing your dream job, travelling the world, or just being able to hold your own in any conversation, the more you know, the further you can go.
Study because it builds discipline. Setting aside time to study teaches you valuable skills like time management and self-discipline. These habits will serve you well in all areas of life, long after you’ve closed the textbooks.
Study because you want to improve yourself. Self-improvement isn't just about hitting the gym or eating right. It's about feeding your mind and growing as a person. Each study session is a step towards a better, more informed you.
Study because it’s a privilege. Not everyone has the opportunity to learn. Embrace the privilege of education and make the most of it. Honor those who fought for the right to study by making the most of your own education.

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
