Japanese Numbers

Numbers you'll use every day

Numbers appear on every payslip, contract, safety sign, and shift schedule. This trainer covers core number words, common salary amounts in yen, and all 12 months — in both learn and quiz modes.

On every document you receive

Payslips, contracts, shift rosters, and bank statements all use Japanese numbers. Being able to read them quickly means you can verify your wages, understand your schedule, and catch mistakes before they become problems.

Salary amounts in yen

Japanese salaries are quoted in yen — amounts like 180,000円 or 220,000円 appear on your payslip every month. This trainer includes common salary ranges so you can read and compare figures with confidence.

Dates and months matter

Japanese workplaces use month names like 一月 (January) through 十二月 (December) on notices, schedules, and leave forms. Knowing all 12 months lets you read posted notices and fill in forms without help.
