Numbers You will not be able to get very far in Spanish without a knowledge of numbers, so here are the numbers up to 100: 1 uno 11 once 2 dos 12 doce 3 tres 13 trece 4 cuatro 14 catorce 5 cinco 15 quince 6 seis 16 diecisis 7 siete 17 diecisiete 8 ocho 18 dieciocho 9 nueve 19 diecinueve 10 diez 20 veinte 21 veintiuno 22 veintids 23 veintitrs 24 veinticuatro

Remember the uno loses its -o before a noun.

uno must always agree in gender with the noun that follows it, even when it forms part of another number:

Tiene veintin aos. She is 21 years old. Hay veintiuna casas. There are 21 houses. Notice that numbers 21 to 29 are written as one word in modern Spanish. You may come across some older spellings where they appear as separate words: e.g. veinte y dos 22 veinte y ocho 28 A hundred is either cien or ciento depending on the context in which it is used.When it is followed by a plural noun,it is cien: e.g. cien hombres 100 men cien casas 100 houses When it is followed by another number, it is ciento: e.g. ciento veintiocho 128 The exception to this rule is 100,000,which is cien mil. Numbers above 100 are as follows: 200 doscientos (doscientas before a feminine plural noun) Similarly: 300 trescientos 400 cuatrocientos 500 quinientos 600 seiscientos 700 setecientos 800 ochocientos 900 novecientos 1.000 mil 2.000 dos mil 1.000.000 un milln

It is very easy to combine numbers in Spanish: 105 ciento cinco 256 doscientos cincuenta y seis 389 trescientos ochenta y nueve 1.247 mil doscientos cuarenta y siete 2.321 dos mil trescientos veintiuno 1.750.459 un milln setecientos cincuenta mil cuatrocientos cincuenta y nueve Notice that the only place y occurs is between tens and units. Note: In numbers a full stop is used to mark off thousands or millions, when in English we would use a comma. The comma is used where we would use the decimal point in English (e.g. 12,6% el doce coma seis por ciento twelve point six per cent). Using the above examples you should now be able to say any number in Spanish that you are likely to need.

Dates To ask the date you could say either: Qu fecha es hoy? In which case the answer might be: Es el dos de mayo. It is the second of May. Or you could say: A qu estamos? In this case the answer would be: Estamos a dos de mayo. It is the second of May. The first of the month is commonly expressed by el uno de, but el primero is also found. El uno de diciembre. El primero de diciembre. If you want to add the year to the date, it is normally joined to the date by de: e.g. El doce de marzo de dos mil uno.

Un(o) shortens in the same way as when it is an indefinite article (see 4.4). doscientas cincuenta liras two hundred and fifty liras veintiuna libras twenty-one pounds cincuenta y un libros fifty-one books (b) Ciento is shortened to cien immediately before a noun; cien is the form also often used in isolation: cien pginas a hundred pages el nmero cien(to) the number one hundred veinte por ciento twenty per cent Exercises 1 Write the following numbers in full: 1 5 6 14 11 18 2 10 7 52 12 145 3 27 8 67 13 269 4 30 9 76 14 12 5 46 10 102 15 313 2 Write the following numbers in figures: 1 treinta y ocho 2 cuarenta y seis 3 once 4 venticinco 5 sesenta y tres 6 ochenta y siete 7 setenta y nueve 8 ciento cinco 9 doscientos sesenta y dos 10 mil trescientos cuatro 11 quinientos veintiuno 12 treinta y cuatro 13 ciento treinta y tres
