2 ni

The number two in Japanese is に (ni). This sound is short and sharp, so keep it quick when you say it. You will hear it in many daily contexts, like in the age 22 (ni-juu-ni) or when telling time such as 2 o’clock (ni-ji). It also appears in money amounts, for example 200 yen is ni-hyaku-en. Practice repeating it clearly while listening to the audio until it feels natural. Once you master ni, you’ll have an easier time combining it into larger numbers.
