The position of a 1

(Arabic-Number): (Kanji)(Hiragana,Romanization Japanese,English-like Japanese)
0: 〇(ぜろ,zero,zet row)

6: 六(ろく,roku,rock)

IMPORTANT: 0 is not using any positions suffix,or prefix.

The position of a 10

The position of a 10, you may need add suffix. That name is “十(じゅう,zoo)”
And If the position of a 10 is “0”,you don’t say “0”, just say The position of a 10 number and suffix.

Exception

• In 11-19, “十(じゅう,jyu,zoo)” is a prefix.
• 10 is just say “十(じゅう,jyu,zoo)”. Don’t say anything.

Case

10: “zoo”
1[1-9]: “zoo” + (The position of a 1 words)
[2-9][1-9]: (The position of a 10 convert into The position of a 1 words) + “zoo” + (The position of a 1 words)
[2-9]0: (The position of a 10 convert into The position of a 1 words) + “zoo”

Example

10: 十(じゅう,zoo)
11: 十一(じゅういち, zoo e-chee)
12: 十二(じゅうに, zoo knee)
20: 二十(にじゅう, knee zoo)
21: 二十一(にじゅういち, knee zoo e-chee)
…
