Best Answer

1 through 10

Ichi, ni, san, shi/yon, go, roku, shichi/nana, hachi, kyu, ju. 11-19

ju-ichi, ju-ni, ju-san, etc 20

ni-ju 21

ni-ju ichi 25

ni-ju go 34

san-ju yon 100

hyaku 1000

sen 10,000

man At 10,000 it gets complicated because they count in 10,000s instead of thousands. So for 100,000 they say 10 10,000s or ju-man.

1,000,000 is one hundred 10,000s or hyaku-man. Because the money system is in yen (10,000 yen equals about $85), big numbers are used really often, and they get pretty confusing.
