I did in my jr high days. In Japanese, there is a way to memorise numbers as short poems.
You mean the mi hitotsu yo hitotsu -something and also the one about the bird on a mountain? Really interesting lol when I first heard of those in the DS game Subarashii Shin Sekai.

And also you mentioned being able to understand ancient chinese and not modern. Something similar happened to me, as I speak chinese and learnt japanese. I found that I begin to understand ancient chinese much more than before.

I'm really interested in anything Japanese, so this thread was a nice read lol
