Question

does this sentence sound and spell right?: りなさんはしちじじゅうごふんにがっこうにいきます。

Answer 1

will I still get full credit even if I didnt use kanji or arabic?

Answer 2

The sentence you provided is mostly correct, but there is a slight issue with the time expression. It should be written as "七時十五分" (しちじじゅうごふん) in kanji or in a more accurate form as "七時15分" (しちじ15ふん) using a combination of kanji and Arabic numerals.

So the corrected version could look like this:

- **In kanji**: りなさんは七時十五分に学校に行きます。
- **Using Arabic numerals**: りなさんは7時15分に学校に行きます。

Both versions mean "Rina will go to school at 7:15."

Answer 3

In many contexts, especially in language learning, the use of hiragana alone might be acceptable for full credit, particularly if you are still in the early stages of learning Japanese. However, if your instructor or the assignment specifically emphasized the use of kanji or Arabic numerals, you might lose some points for not following those guidelines.

It's always a good idea to check with your teacher or refer to the grading criteria to understand what is expected. If this was an informal setting, you could likely still receive full credit, especially if the meaning is clear.
