    While in English we could say "four oh five" or "five past four" for 4:05, Japanese only has one way of saying the time. So:
    4:05 = yoji gofun
    4:30 = yoji-han OR yoji sanjuppun
    4:45 = yoji yonjuugofun

      Is there also another case when you use "yo" instead of "yon" when you want to say "4"?
      Or is it only with the time?

  • @JapanesePod101
    @JapanesePod101  11 лет назад +6

    Hi, thank you very much for your comment.
    For 5:30, you can say go-ji han. Go-ji is 5 o'clock and han is thirty or half.
    We have lessons for how to say time in Japanese on our website so please check it out when you have time.
    Thank you.
    Sincerely,

    Hi,
    it could depend on the situations, but we do use the 24-hour system. In casual conversations where the other person is in another country, we can easily assume whether it's AM or PM. But, if you want to specify, 8 a.m. is "gozen 8-ji" and 8 p.m. is "gogo 8-ji".

    Also there is a way to say in the morning or in the afternoon - 午前 (gogo) / 午前 (gozen)

    • @potato4687
      @potato4687 3 года назад

      No mean to be rude
      The Kanji for Afternoon is: 午後 (gogo)
      And Morning is: 午前 (gozen)

  • @JapanesePod101
    @JapanesePod101  11 лет назад +1

    Hi,
    we do use "shi" for 4, like "shi gatsu" meaning April (Month 4) and "shi ki" meaning "four seasons".
    Hope you won't get too confused ;)

    It kind of makes sense after a while. At first it seems weird because in English are building blocks to create words is our alphabet, and Japanese uses sounds (Hiragana and Katakana represent these sounds) Then with those sounds put together in certain ways becomes a word similar to our alphabet. The main difference is that once you put the sounds together changes the Hiragana or Katakana into a shorter, more compact character aka Kanji. for example: ima - いま in hiragana changes to - 今 in Kanji.

    The scripts used in writing (hiragana, katakana, kanji) are all part of Japanese, so to answer your question : yes, it's all the same. If you study Japanese, you can communicate with anyone else who speaks/studies it too.

    You'll have to get used to it. Brevity isn't the focus of kanji, anyways - it's the meaning in it that is. You wouldn't notice without someone pointing it out, but the characters are intricately made to resemble its meaning.
    And this is coming from a mandarin speaker, so take heed :)

    @thany3 11 лет назад

    On the flipside, you could say that English is difficult because it has so few characters. I believe there are around 8000 different "language sounds" that can be made with these characters (src: Human Japanese). The Japanese character comprise exactly 110 of these language sounds, and no more.
    In English, the entire meaning of a sentence can be turned upside down just by changing the order of words. In Japanese, this is not possible - it only changes emphasis a little (or so I have learned).

    I have another question. Let's say that you talk with japanese person who lives in another country.. or is traveling on a trip.. etc. I noticed that japanese people don't use the 24 hours system, so you can't say- it's 23 o'clock (which is a possible in my country, though not that commonly used), so.. how do you specify if it 8 o'clock on the morning or on the evening?
