I came across this sentence in one of the practice lessons and it is really unclear in the audio what is being said, would this be pronounced nanari jarimasen ?
It’s しちにん.
Important lesson that Koichi never seems to mention: the pronunciations of 一人 and 二人 are the weird freaky exceptions – after that, the counter 人 is always read as にん.
一人 ＝ ひとり
二人 ＝ ふたり
三人 ＝ さんにん
四人 ＝ よにん
五人 ＝ ごにん
et ceteraAlso, the readings for 七 tend to be fairly interchangeable.
Thankyou so much :)
Ah, this question was on my mind as well. Thank you!
