Hi all,
I'm currently using a Japanese workbook for learning Kanjis and encountered some words which I'm not really sure what the correct pronunciations for them are.
1) Is "生年月日" read as "せいねんがっび" or "せいねんげつひ"?
2) Is the "日" in "一年は三百六十五日てす。" read as "ひ" of "にち"?
3) Is the "日" in "五月五日は子供の日てす。" read as "ひ" of "にち"?
4) I've learned from this workbook that "千 (1000)" has "ち" as its kunyomi (Japanese reading) as in "千葉 (Chiba Prefecture) and "せん" as its onyomi (Chinese reading) as in "千年前 (a thousand years ago)". Seems like both its kunyomi and onyomi are frequently used.
The workbook specified both of the readings for "千" but cited only onyomi for "百 (100)" and "万" (10,000)". Is that because the kunyomi of these two words are rarely used or don't exist at all? I searched my dictionary and found out that "百" and "万" have kunyomis "もも" and "よろず" respectively. Are these correct? Are they even used?
Oh, and, is the kunyomi and onyomi for "円" "まるい" and "えん" respectively?
5) Are "4月 (April)" and "4か月 (4 months)" read as "しがつ" and "よっかげつ" respectively?
Thank you for answering.
