Fifth Class: Lesson 4

Today we will learn about number first. Starting by how to count person. nin- is use to counter a person.



1 Person = Hitori                                  6 People = Rokunin
2 People = Futari                                  7 People = Shincinin
3 People = Sanin                                  8 People = Hachinin
4 People = Yonin                                  9 People = Kyuunin
5 People = Gonin                                10 People = Junnin

Next, numbers



1 = Ichi                                                6 = Roku
2 = Ni                                                  7 = Nana / Shichi
3 = San                                                8 = Hachi
4 = Yon                                                9 = Kyuu
5 = Go                                                10 = Juu

11= Ju ichi                                          30 = San ju
12= Ju ni                                             31 = San ju ichi
20 = Hatachi                                       40 = Yon ju
21 = ni ju ichi                                     99 = Kyuu Ju Kyu
22= ni ju ni                                        100 = Hyaku

101 = Hyaku Ichi                               300 = SanByaku
115 = Hyaku ju go                             301 = SanByaku Ichi
167= Hyaku Roku juu Nana             323 = SanByaku Ni juu san
200 = Ni Hyaku                                400 = Yonkyaku
201=  Ni Hyaku Ichi                         600 = Roppyaku
223 = Ni Hyaku Ichi juu San            800 = Happyaku
900 = Kyuhyaku                               1000 = Sen

10 000 = Ichiman
100 000 = Juman
1 000 000 = Hyakuman
10 000 000 = Sen man

In Japanese phone number and room number in Hotel, they will pronounce it one by one for example

Room 225 = Ni Ni Go not Ni Hyaku Ni jun Go

Phone number = 012 6731820
Zero Ichi Ni Roku Nana  San Ichi Hachi Ni Zero

Starting like this,

There are lot of activities that happen during that day such as wearing Yakuta, food festival, photobooth, Forum Keiken Talk and also Art and Craft. This program was held by Japanese Language Society. 

1. Origami

I try it for the first time. The Swan Origami was thought by the Japanese people from Islamic International University Malaysia (IIUM). They are so kind and humble.

2. Food

3. Wearing Yukata

4. Talk by Dr Hiroko Shiozaki 

Dr Hiroko Shizoki is an assistant professor kuliyyah of languages and management in IIUM. She talks about Japanese and Islamic Source of Moral and Discipline- Similarities and Differences.

• She said that only 28% in Japan trust on God there rest does not have any religion they don't believe in God. 
• They said religion is dangerous because Islam has strict and restriction. Other than that, since the incident of IS who kill 7 Japanese people that make them feel that religions is dangerous. 
• We must correct their misunderstanding because Islam is is the most guidance not like they think. 
• However, you can see that Japanese people behave more better than the Muslim. It is easy to find Muslim who admire Japanese moral but its hard to find Japanese people who admire Muslim moral. 
• Even though they are very discipline but they are not happy. Dr Hiroko was happy to become a Muslim
• In Japan, there is not Islamphobia there don't believe is Terrorist.

5. Forum Keikin Talk by my JAD

Talk from Malaysia Students who has been study in Japan for their degree or degree and master. They share their experience study in Japan. This three panel are, Mr Faquidin, Mr Zulafif and Mr Faizal. 

HOW THEY LEARN JAPANESE LANGUAGE ? 

• Listen to Japanese song and google the lyrics and understand from that.
• Talk Japanese to your friends who can support you and help you to improve your languages
• Talk everything you know even though it sound like crab
• Travel solo to Japan so that it force you to speak Japanese when you lost or ask for help from them

WHAT ARE THE CHALLENGES THAT THEY FACE IN JAPAN ?

• Self Control. It means that its quite hard for you to control yourself when you are far away from family and to take care of your Iman. You should have to discipline yourself not to drink alcohol, eat anything that HARAM even though at that time you are so hungry.
• To find friend when they fist time came there, because most of the student in their class has already have their own group for assignment.

WHAT ARE THE VALUES THAT YOU GET ?

• Appreciation. Japanese people are very polite if you help them once they will appreciate you by saying Arigoto for many times. 
• Supportive. One of them doing a part time job as a garbage man. he collect rubbish in every house suddenly there was a kindergarten there and then the teacher ask their student to come out from class and say Gambatte Kudasai to him as a garbage man.
• Honestly. Japanese people are very honest in everything they do.
• Systematic and Structure. Japanese people work are very systematic and structure
• Punctually. They are so punctual in every occasion they go.
• They deliver what they had promise.
