How to Say ‘After one week’ in Japanese
１しゅうかんご
ichi shuukan go
[one shoo-kahn goh]
💬 Usage Tip: [〜ご] means “after.” So [１週間後] = “one week later.” You can also say [２日後] “two days later.”
🇯🇵 In Japan: In Japan, staff may say [１週間後に来てください] (“Please come in one week”) rather than giving an exact date—then they’ll calculate the date for you.
