You know, I grew up in a town where we had a japanese exchange program. I was always taught that one is ich. Not ichi. I was taught that Ichi meant something that you really don't want to say. I often find myself in a debate over it.

Anyways, thanks for the lesson! Very edumacational!

Does Ichiban mean first place? Mushiban means cavities, but I'm not sure about ichiban.

No, but if improperly translated the word can come close but not exact.

I heard that one of the numbers means death, is that true?
