Numbers in Japanese often have the same sounds as other words. The number 4 can stand for "shi." which refers to death. And the number 9 can sound like "ku," which means suffering. These numbers 66 sound uncomfortable for people in Japan. Japanese people sometimes throw five-yen coins into offering boxes at shrines. Five yen in Japanese sounds like "go-en." They wish that their five-yen coins will bring good fortune. As the examples above show, native Japanese speakers are careful about how numbers are pronounced in the language. Japanese numbers have another side. 5963, or "go-ku-ro-san," can mean: “Thank you for your hard work." 530, or "go-mi-zero," can refer to zero waste.
