Numbers from 1 to 20
The first twelve numbers are unique and must be memorized individually. Numbers from 13 to 19 end with the suffix -teen, which is why we call people in this age group teenagers. Note that the word 'five' changes to 'fifteen' when adding the suffix.
- Memorize numbers 1 to 12 individually.
- Use the suffix -teen for numbers 13 to 19.
The Tens and Compound Numbers
Numbers that represent tens, like twenty or thirty, always end with the suffix -ty. To form compound numbers between 21 and 99, combine the ten with a single digit. You must always place a hyphen between these two words, such as in ninety-nine.
- Tens like 20, 30, and 40 end in -ty.
- Use a hyphen (-) to connect tens and single digits.
Spelling and Pronunciation Tips
When saying numbers like thirteen, the stress is on the last syllable, but for thirty, it is on the first. Watch your spelling with the number 40, which has no 'u'. Also, remember that the 'v' in five changes to an 'f' in fifteen and fifty.
- Stress the last syllable for -teen and the first for -ty.
- Spelling: forty has no 'u', and fifty uses an 'f'.
Zanimivosti
- People aged 13 to 19 are called teenagers because their numbers end in -teen.
- The number 40 is spelled 'forty' without a 'u', even though 4 and 14 have one.
