5-minute Japanese Class by Hitomi Hirayama
The other day, I went to a
sushi
restaurant, sat at the counter for the first
time and ordered
maguro sushi
. When it arrived, there were two pieces on
my plate, not the one I thought I'd ordered. When I said I had only ordered
one, the sushi chef just smiled and said, "I know." I ordered some more
sushi
, but it always came in pairs. I became full quite quickly, which was a
pity because I wanted to try a larger variety. How should I count
sushi
?
Nigiri sushi
dates back to the Edo period. In those days,
sushi
was sold
at food stalls and was large so people could more easily hold it with their fingers.
But when restaurants later began to sell the delicacy, the
sushi
was reduced to half
the size to make it easier to eat. This probably is why
sushi
always comes in pairs.
We use "
kan
" to count sushi. There are various explanations for this, but none of
them can be verified.
For you to be able to remember counters more easily, I have sorted them according to pronunciation.
★
Quiz: One thing can be counted in different ways depending on
its condition. How many can you get right?

e.g.,
