<p>
	Numbers above <strong>10</strong> are normally written in Western Arabic numerals for conciseness.
	However, in this course we will use the traditional way of writing numbers with kanji, because this will give you more practice.
	The way we count in Japanese resembles the way we count in English, but is more regular, as you can see when looking at the table below.
