    六千: six thousand. The Japanese noun '六千 (ろくせん)' means 'six thousand'. It is a numerical term used to denote the quantity of six thousand. This word is often used in contexts involving counting, pricing, or any situation where large numbers are discussed. For example: the price is six thousand yen「値段は六千円です」(ねだんはろくせんえんです). There are six thousand people in the audience「観客は六千人です」(かんきゃくはろくせんにんです). Note that '六千' is a specific number and is used in formal or written contexts, while in casual speech, numbers are often expressed in a more simplified manner.

    馬鹿: fool or idiot. The Japanese adjectival noun '馬鹿 (ばか)' primarily means 'fool' or 'idiot'. It is used to describe someone who is foolish, silly, or lacking in common sense. However, it can also be used in a more affectionate or playful manner among close friends or family. For example: You're such an idiot「あなたは本当に馬鹿だね」(あなたはほんとうにばかだね). Don't be silly「馬鹿なこと言わないで」(ばかなこといわないで). It's important to note that while '馬鹿' can be used humorously, it can also be considered rude or offensive depending on the context and tone of voice.
