I’ve learned the japanese numbers. 一, 二, 三, 四, 五, 六… but, they don’t register into my head when I see actual numbers. I see 53, I think fifty-three. Not ごじゅうさん (go ju san). So while driving to work, I tried a little game, any numbers I saw, I’d try to think of their japanese saying. And boy, there are tons of numbers everywhere you look.

A few days of that, and it seems there are some good effects, numbers pop in much easier.
