Does anyone know how to keep score in badminton in japanese, so many ways of counting things!
I asked my Japanese badminton buddy and she had no idea as she only learned the game in this country
Tried Prof Google but could only get instructions on keeping score in English (which I do know how to do)
Perhaps someone in this community knows?
thanks

Are you asking which counter is used? Typically 点 (てん)
The actual scoring rules seem the same.

Should indeed be 点.
Checked the rules section of the Wikipedia entry and it says, for example:
試合は、シングルス、ダブルスともに、2ゲーム先取の3ゲームマッチ。それぞれラリーポイントの21点 先取した側が1ゲームを得る。ただし20-20になった場合延長となり、以降どちらかが2点 差をつけるか、30点 に達するまで行われる。即ち、29-29となった場合は次に得点した側がそのゲームを得ることになる。
Rough translation
In both singles and doubles matches, it’s first to two out of three games. The first side to get 21 rally points wins a game. However, in the case of 20-20 there will be an extension playing until a 2 point difference or 30 points are reached. i.e. in the case of 29-29 the side who takes the next point wins the game.
