Katagana is usually the writing used for if a Japanese word sounds like the English word, but there are exceptions to if it is written. Hiragana is the common writing for Japanese words. Romaji is English lettering but how to say it in Japanese.
Katagana = Hiragana = Romaji = English
一 = いち = ichi = one 二 = に = ni = two 三 = さん = san = three 四 = よん or し = yon or shi = four (よん or し is used depending on context) 五 = ご = go = five 六 = ろく = roku = six 七 = しち or なな = shichi or nana (seven works in the same way four does) 八 = はち = hachi = eight 九 = きゅう = kyuu = nine (the two 'u' make a longer 'u' sound) 十 = じゅう = jyuu = ten
after ten you can add tem together to make the rest of the numbers: 十一 = じゅういち = juuichi = eleven 十二 = じゅうに = juuni = twelve 十三 = じゅうさん = juusan = thirteen 十四 = じゅうし = juushi = fourteen 十五 = じゅうご = juugo = fifteen 十六 = じゅうろく = juuroku = sixteen 十七 = じゅうしち = juushichi = seventeen 十八 = じゅうはち = juuhachi = eighteen 十九 = じゅうきゅう = juukyuu = nineteen 二十 = にじゅう = nijuu = twenty 二十一 = にじゅういち = nijuuichi = twenty one 二十二 = にじゅうに = nijuuni = twenty two (etc.) 三十 = さんじゅう = sanjuu = thirty 四十 = しじゅう = yonjuu = forty 五十 = ごじゅう = gojuu = fifty 六十 = ろくじゅう = rokujuu = sixty 七十 = しちじゅう = shichijuu = seventy 八十 = はちじゅう = hachijuu = eighty 九十 = きゅうじゅう = kyuujuu = ninety 百 = ひゃく = hyaku = hundred 百一 = ひゃくいち = hyakuichi = hundred one 百十 = ひゃくじゅう = hyakujuu = hundred ten 百十一 = ひゃくじゅういち = hyakujuuichi = hundred eleven 二百 = にひゃく = nihyaku = two hundred 千 = せん = sen = thousand 千百 = せんひゃく = senhyaku = thousand hundred 二千 = にせん = nisen = two thousand
