Let's learn the number-counting way in Japanese KANJI - by introduction of our position in the world ranking



The above is the number counting way in Japanese KANJI. (from one to ten)
Today let’s learn them one by one, by means of introducing rankings of Japan in the world so that you can impressively remember each of numbers!
Shall we start from ten.


No. 10



The number of population in Japan: 127,580,000 is “10”th in the world. Please see the list of countries ordered according to population.

No. 9



According to the Global Competitiveness Report 2008-2009 by World Economic Forum (WEF), Japan is ranked “9”th in the world. We are dropping every year. Something must be done to recover!

No. 8





We succeed to get 9 gold medals in Beijing 2008 Summer Olympics, which ranked “8”th among participants. (For information: 1st is China, 2nd is U.S.A. and 3rd is Russia.) However, the rank was actually worse than the previous Olympic in Athens; we ranked “5”th with 15 numbers of gold medals at that time.


No.7



According to the annuncement of FIFA World Rankings on Women's association football dated on March 27, 2009, our Japanes women's association has succeeded in 7th rank! This is the highest order ever! On the other hand, mens' one is still in competition among the Aisian countries (around 40th).

This result reflects the truth of the current situation in Japan. Namely it means that men are not stronger than women in every field no longer...


No.6



According to THE-QS World University Rankings 2008, we succeeded to be awarded in ‘6’th rank, this is mainly because Tokyo Institute of Technology (TIT), like MIT in U.S.A., has been evaluated much more higher than previouse year.
