Counting things in Japanese is frustrating
You led me to a rabbit hole, what the fuck lol, never knew it was this hard
You're not into long pointy things being counted differently than flat things being counted differently than people being counted differently than...?
Counting books? Sure would be nice to use the kanji for book... but nope, that's for hot dogs or something.
And even if you figure out the right counter word, the numbers are often prounced different ways depending on what follows. Whether it be rendaku or just irregular readings.
