In English from one to 20. English numbers and numbers: translation and pronunciation. A short course in the history of the emergence of numbers

Being able to count in English is just as important as speaking. In any tourist country, all sellers, taxi drivers, hotel staff have an account up to 20. Are you worse or what? In general, you understand what's what. To learn how to count to a million in English, you need to learn only 31 words. But everything is in order. In this article, we will learn how to count up to 20.

In Russian, to learn numbers, you need to know over 100 words. The same rules apply in English counting, but it is worth mentioning a couple of important points that will greatly facilitate the process of learning numbers and figures for you:

  • AT English language, unlike Russian, numbers do not decline by gender. If we have “two thousand”, but “two million”, then it is the same here that “two thousand”, that “two million”
  • They do not decline in cases, that is, the endings do not change. Instead of "thousand - thousand-thousand-thousand ...", to the whole simple word "thousand"
  • Also, instead of "1 million - 2 million - 5 million", it all comes down to using one word "million" and no additional endings
  • There are no personal names for hundreds. Instead of "two hundred" there will be "two hundred", instead of "six hundred" the Englishman will say "six hundred", etc.
  • And fifthly, there are much fewer exceptions in the English account.

Well, now let's move from theory directly to practice: The numbers from one to ten are the basis of the basics!

Count up to 20 in English with transcription

Numerous numbers are based on basic numbers - from 1 to 9, you can also include 0 and 10 here. You just have to memorize these numbers:

Further, the next numbers 11 and 12 are the very few exceptions from the first 20. They also need to be remembered. Then everything is much easier. From the 13th to the 19th, the same “number (from 3 to 9) + teen” is formed in the same way. For example, six + teen = sixteen. Just like in Russian thirteen, fifteen. That's -11 is -teen. The number is written together, but read with an emphasis on the last syllable.

Here, too, there are minor changes. In pronunciation, they are not noticeable, but in writing it is worth paying attention to changes in the root:

  • 13: spelling "three" is modified to "thir"
  • 15: in the second syllable "five" v changes to f, and the letter "e" disappears
  • 18: when adding the suffix "teen" to "eight", the appearing letter t is not duplicated, but replaced with a single

In fact, the ending "teen" is a full-fledged word, meaning the age from 13 to 19 years old.

It should be taken into account that Russian pronunciation(transcription) - this is only an approximate sound, the specifics of the sound of English numbers cannot be 100% conveyed.

How to teach a child to count in English?

As soon as you start teaching your children English, it also needs to be taught and counted. Be sure to do this through the game to instill in him a love and desire for learning the language. Here are some ways to teach your child to count in English:

  • Buy or download number cards from the Internet. It is better if on each of them it will be written in letters and with pronunciation. Lay out the pictures on the floor. Say the number in English, and let the child bring you the right card or point to it
  • The previous game, only the adult already calls the number in native, and the child takes a card with a number and calls it in a foreign
  • Take the ball. Stand opposite, and throwing the ball into the hands of the child, call the numeral in a foreign language, and the child, returning the toy to you, says it in his native
  • The game "Who has more." Turn the cards upside down, and at the same time pull out one picture at a time with the baby. Say the number in English. Whoever has more gets both cards. And so on until the end. Whoever has the most wins
  • Ask the child to draw the numbers, give them human features- eyes, pens, and their name will be the name of the number
  • Use fun counting rhymes that kids can easily remember
  • Another option is the Crocodile game, but instead of words, the child must turn into a number
  • You can also ask your child to draw a number that you say in the air.

For the first time, children begin to get acquainted with a foreign language in kindergarten. study simple words that are encountered in everyday life. Every first grader should know how to count in English within ten. This is a basic program, it must be mastered by the child when entering school. Numbers in English can be learned not only easily, but also exciting. Today, many interesting ways and methods have been invented for this.

Learn numbers from 1 to 19

English numerals counting and learning from 1 to 100 is easy if you approach the learning process with ingenuity. To quickly learn a new language, you need to understand the process of generating an account. On the initial stage it is worth learning only 12 numbers that will help you master the entire grammatical series. Every student and adult knows them. Therefore, any parent can teach their child with ease.

First you need to memorize the numbers from 1 to 12. A special table will help to do this.

10 TentenTeng
11 ElevenelevenElavn
12 TwelvetwelveTuelv

Presented English number series usually taught in poetic form so it is easy to remember.

Counting from 13 to 19, knowing the previous numbers by heart will be easy. To do this, you need to learn how to independently compose a number series using the learned numbers.

To get 13, you need to add the suffix teen (tin) to the number 3, it turns out three (free) + teen (tin) \u003d thirteen (fetin). The same rule applies to the number five and four:

  • four (fo) + teen (tin) = fourteen (fotin) - 14;
  • five (fifty) + teen (tin) \u003d fifteen (fiftin) - 15.

This row can be continued until 19: 16 - sixteen, 17 - seventeen, 18 - eighteen, 19 - nineteen. If a child understands the process of forming numbers from 1 to 20, English will become a favorite language for the baby, which is not at all difficult to learn on your own or with the help of parents.

Compiling dozens

Tens in English is just as interesting to learn as other numbers in the account. Because they are formed in the same way as the previous figures. Round numbers are obtained by adding the suffix ty (ti). For example, to understand how to pronounce and write 20, 30, 40, 50, you need:

  • twu (tu) + ty (ti) = twenty (twenti) - 20;
  • three (free) + ty (ty) = thirty (hundreds) - 30;
  • four (fo) + ty (ti) = forty (foti) - 40;
  • five (fife) + ty (ty) = fifty (fifty) - 50.
  • Thus, a table of round tens is obtained.

    50 FiftyFivetyFifty
    60 SixtySixtysixty
    70 Seventyseventyseventy
    80 EightyAityEighty
    90 NinetyKnightyNinety

    It is worth remembering how the numbers 50, 40, 30, 20 are written and pronounced. These are the words of the exception. When they are formed, the root is modified.

    Getting the rest of the numbers from one to one hundred is also not difficult. Any student can do this if he understands the technology of their education. You can give an example on the numbers 54 and 45:

    • 54 is made up of fifty and four, so in English language it will sound like fifty (50) + four (4) = fifty-four (fifty-fo);
    • 45 consists of forty (forty) and five (five), it turns out forty-five (foty five).

    As shown above, the number is made up of tens and ones, which is closely related to the Russian language - 20 (twenty) + 5 (five) \u003d 25 (twenty-five). AT mother tongue the numbers are readable. It makes the learning process easier.

    Any kid will be able to understand the pattern of creating numbers four, five, ten, twenty-four, etc. up to 100 if parents help and guide him. Already in primary school he expects an extensive acquaintance with English and British pronunciation, their difference. In the first grades, children are already learning how to write and pronounce the numbers up to 100. Therefore, it is extremely important to help the child master the foreign language perfectly.

    What can a person starting to learn English not do without? What should your child learn for school? Without which you can't even tell what time it is? Of course, no numbers. Learning numbers in English is pretty easy. You can memorize them with the help of interesting color pictures, you can sing like a song, you can memorize them like a tongue twister - room for imagination and creativity!

    How to say numbers in English

    We list the main numbers in English:

    • 0 - zero - zero;
    • 1 - one - one;
    • 2 - two - two;
    • 3 - three - three;
    • 4 - four - four;
    • 5 - five - five;
    • 6 - six - six;
    • 7 - seven - seven;
    • 8 - eight - eight;
    • 9 - nine - nine.

    The following numbers do not lend themselves to the general rules of formation:

    • 10 - ten - ten;
    • 11 - eleven - eleven;
    • 12 - twelve - twelve;
    • 100 - hundred - one hundred;
    • 1000 - thousand - a thousand.

    How to pronounce them correctly in English?

    You can pronounce the numbers correctly, and all other words of the English language, only if you know the transcription. Transcription is a special recording of a word as it is pronounced (for example, Russian word“to be drawn” transcriptionally can be written as [risavatsa]). Yes, and learning English numbers with transcription is much easier than without it.

    Here is how the English numbers are read:

    • 0 - 🔊 Listen to zero - [‘ziərəu];
    • 1 - 🔊 Listen one - ;
    • 2 - 🔊 Listen two - ;
    • 3 - 🔊 Listen to three - [θri:];
    • 4 - 🔊 Listen to four -;
    • 5 - 🔊 Listen to five -;
    • 6 – 🔊 Listen to six. - ;
    • 7 - 🔊 Listen seven - [‘sev (ə) n];
    • 8 - 🔊 Listen to eight -;
    • 9 - 🔊 Listen to nine -;

    • 12 - 🔊 Listen to twelve - ;
    • 100 - 🔊 Listen hundred - ;
    • 1000 - 🔊 Listen thousand - [θʌuzend].

    But what if you don't know how the transcription is read? For those who are just going to learn English from scratch, numbers with Russian transcription will be very useful:

    • 0 - zero - [zero];
    • 1 - one - [one];
    • 2 - two - [that];
    • 3 - three - [sree];
    • 4 - four - [pho];
    • 5 - five - [five];
    • 6 - six - [six];
    • 7 - seven - [seven];
    • 8 - eight - [eyt];
    • 9 - nine - [nein];
    • 10 - ten - [ten];
    • 11 - eleven - [ileven];
    • 12 - twelve - [twelv];
    • 100 - hundred - [handred];
    • 1000 - thousand - [Southend].

    All possible numbers, the largest imaginable are just combinations of nine digits, from zero to nine. Numbers are formed according to special rules.

    Rules for the formation of numbers in English

    In general, numbers in English can be divided into:
    simple;
    derivatives;
    composite.


    Understanding which number is which is very simple. Simple consist of one word (for example: five, nine, thousand). Derivatives consist of one word, but at the same time have suffixes -teen (from 13 to 19) or -ty (tens from 20 to 90). Composite However, as their name implies, they consist of several numerals.

    How to form derivative numbers?

    To form derivative numbers from 13 to 19, take a number from 3 to 9 and add the -teen suffix to it. Some letters may change! Be careful!

    13 - three + teen = thirteen;
    14 - four + teen = fourteen;
    15 - five + teen = fifteen;
    16 - six + teen = sixteen;
    17 - seven + teen = seventeen;
    18 - eight + teen = eighteen;
    19 - nine + teen = nineteen.

    The stress in these numerals will fall on the suffix. Numerals are read in accordance with the transcription of the first parts (for example: fifteen - [fiftin], eighteen - [eytin]).

    To form derivative numbers from 20 to 90, take a number from 2 to 9 and add the -ty suffix to it.

    20 - two + ty = twenty;
    30 - three + ty = thirty;
    40 - four + ty = forty;
    50 - five + ty = fifty;
    60 - six + ty = sixty;
    70 - seven + ty = seventy;
    80 - eight + ty = eighty;
    90 –nine + ty = ninety.

    The stress in these numbers will fall on the root. They are read in the same way as the first parts: (for example: sixty - [sixty], forty - [foti]).

    How to form compound numbers?

    Compound numbers are formed using tens + ones (if the number is less than one hundred), hundreds + tens + ones (if the number is less than a thousand), etc.

    For example, you want to form the number "twenty-one". You need to write two words: "twenty" and "one". Thus, twenty-one is twenty-one! In this case, two-digit numbers are written with a hyphen.
    Similarly, you can form any number up to a hundred:

    Fifty-three - fifty + three = fifty-three.
    Forty-nine - forty + nine = forty-nine.
    Seventy-two - seventy + two = seventy-two.
    Thirty-six - thirty + six = thirty-six.
    Ninety-nine - ninety + nine \u003d ninety-nine.

    Baby! Don't be afraid to learn something new! If you know the numbers in Russian, then you will definitely find out how they are written and pronounced in English. In that distant country of England, the numbers are written and pronounced a little differently, they are not complicated at all. Now let's take a look at the history of the emergence of numbers.

    A short course in the history of the emergence of numbers

    Used to be primitive people, they knew this world, just like you do now. And they noticed that they had five fingers on each hand. Look at your hand now. See? You have five fingers. And there are five fingers on the other hand. And if you put them together, it turns out that you have ten fingers on both hands. People realized that numbers can be written down somehow, for example, on stones, because there were no pens and pencils then.

    You ask, why should I write? Well, for example, you can write down the number on paper and remember that you bought two ice creams yesterday and now you already need three ice creams. Now we will stop on the course of history and go straight to the numbers.

    The VoxBook audio course has many examples of the use of numbers and numerals. So in the novel by Robert Louis Stevenson "Treasure Island" from the famous song:

    Fifteen men on the dead man's chest [fifteen people per dead man's chest]
    Yo-ho-ho, and a bottle of rum [yo ho ho, and a bottle of rum]!
    Drink and the devil had done for the rest [drink and the devil will bring you to the end]
    Yo-ho-ho, and a bottle of rum!

    Below are the numbers in English with transcription and translation. Further, the ways of forming cardinal numbers (Cardinal Numerals) and the English account are analyzed in detail.

    Numbers in English 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12.

    The numbers in English from 1 to 12 are i.e. denote the number of items and consist of one word (see table). Writing English numbers 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12 must be remembered. Based on their first ten, all other English numbers are formed.

    Numbers in English from 13 to 19.

    In English, the numbers 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18 and 19 are.
    To form them, the suffix -teen is added to the English number from 1 to 10 from the third column of the table. The result is the number needed to count from 13 to 19:

    13 thirteen - thir teen[ˌθɜːˈtiːn]
    14 fourteen - four teen[ˌfɔːˈtiːn]
    15 fifteen - fif teen[ˌfɪfˈtiːn]
    16 sixteen teen
    17 seventeen - seven teen[ˌsevnˈtiːn]
    18 eighteen-eigh teen[ˌeɪˈtiːn]
    19 nineteen - nine teen[ˌnaɪnˈtiːn]

    Please note that in the English numbers 13 and 15, the root 3 three and 5 five are modified:
    3 - 13 teen
    5-15 teens

    The stress of numerals with the suffix -teen.
    In English, numerals ending in the -teen suffix have two stresses, on the first and second syllables (ˌ weak secondary (collateral) stress and ˈ main stress). Look at the transcription so as not to make a mistake in pronunciation:
    13 - thirteen [ˌθɜːˈtiːn]
    14 - fourteen [ˌfɔːˈtiːn]
    15 - fifteen [ˌfɪfˈtiːn]

    If the numeral with the -teen suffix is ​​not followed by a noun, then when pronouncing, the main stress falls on the -teen suffix:
    fifteen
    sixteen

    When a numeral with the -teen suffix is ​​the definition of a noun (that is, it is followed by a noun), then the stress in it does not fall on the suffix, but only on its first syllable:
    fifteen pencils [ˈfɪftiːn ˈpensl̩z]
    sixteen boxes [ˈsɪkstiːn ˈbɒksɪz]

    In the VoxBook audio course in the fairy tale "The Fish and the Ring" from the collection English Fairy Tales, in which you can hear a similar accent (for this, install the audio course on your computer and listen for yourself):

    English numbers 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70, 80, 90.

    English numbers denoting whole tens 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70, 80, 90 are derived cardinal numbers. To form them, the suffix -ty is added to the tens figure from the third column of the table. As a result, it turns out required amount tens:

    20 twenty - twen ty[ˈtwenti]
    30 thirty-thir ty[ˈθɜːti]
    40 forty - for ty[ˈfɔːti]
    50 fifty - fif ty[ˈfɪfti]
    60 sixty - six ty[ˈsɪksti]
    70 seventy - seven ty[ˈsevnti]
    80 eighty-eigh ty[ˈeɪti]
    90 ninety - nine ty[ˈnaɪnti]

    Please note that in the English numbers 20, 30, 40 and 50, the root of 2 two, 3 three, 4 four and 5 five is modified, and the repetition of the letter t disappears in the number 80:

    2 two - 20 ty [ˈtwenti]
    3 three - 30 ty [ˈθɜːti]
    4 four - 40 ty [ˈfɔːti]
    5 five - 50 ty [ˈfɪfti]
    8 eight - 80 ty [ˈeɪti]

    The stress of numerals with the suffix -ty.
    In English numerals ending in the suffix -ty, the stress is only on the first syllable. Look at the transcription and pronunciation:
    40 - forty [ˈfɔːti]
    50 - fifty
    60 - sixty

    English numbers 100, 1000, 1000000.

    English numbers from 100 to 1000 and 1000000 are presented at the end of the table (see above).

    In English, before 100 hundred, 1000 thousand, 1000000 million, either the indefinite article a (which has the meaning one - one), or the word one is put:

    100 hundred - a (one) hundred [ə wʌn ˈhʌndrəd] (i.e. a hundred or one hundred)
    1000 thousand - a(one) thousand

    Please note that the article is not used with other cardinal numbers:
    Three pencils. Three pencils.
    two girls. Two girls.

    100 hundred , 1000 thousand and 1000000 million do not end with -s , including when they are preceded by another number other than one, for example:

    100 hundred (one hundred) - one hundred or a hundred
    200 two hundred
    300 three hundred
    400 four hundred
    500 five hundred - five hundred
    600 six hundred
    700 seven hundred - seven hundred
    800 eight hundred
    900 nine hundred - nine hundred
    Further
    1000 thousand (one thousand) - one thousand or a thousand
    2000 two thousand - two thousand
    3000 three thousand - three thousand
    4000 four thousand - four thousand
    5000 five thousand - five thousand
    etc.
    1000000 million (one million) - one million or a million
    2000000 two million
    3000000 three million three million
    4000000 four million
    5000000 five million - five million
    6000000 six million - six million
    etc.

    Thus, the numeral is never given the ending -s , however...

    However: the word signifying number can refer not only to a numeral (which does not need to end with -s), but also to a noun, which may already have an ending -s. For example, 100 hundred , 1000 thousand and 1000000 million end with -s when they express an indefinite number of hundreds, thousands or millions. In this case, they are nouns, and the noun following them (if any) is used with the preposition of:
    Three million tons of coal. Three million tons of coal.
    Hundred ideas for learning. Hundreds of ideas for learning.
    Some birds can fly thousand miles. Some birds fly thousands of kilometers.
    Four or five millions of specie had been thrown into circulation lately. Four, five million specie (for) recent times were thrown into circulation.

    All of the above applies to other English numbers from 2 and above, which act as a noun:
    Magnificent seven. The Magnificent Seven. (singular)
    How many seven do you have? How many sevens do you have? (plural)

    In the VoxBook audio course in the novel Treasure Island by Robert Louis Stevenson, with this example:

    Here it is about gentlemen of fortune [so always with gentlemen of fortune = pirates]. They live rough and they risk swinging [they live without amenities and risk being hanged], but they eat and drink like fighting cocks [but eat and drink like kings: "fighting cocks" = show off], and when a cruise is done, why, it's hundreds of pounds instead of hundreds of farthings in their pockets [and when the voyage is over = after sailing, well, they have hundreds of pounds in their pockets instead of hundreds of farthings = pennies].

    (R.L. Stevenson - "TREASURE ISLAND")

    Note. Also, million can end with -s when it is preceded by two, three, etc. provided there is no other number after it. In this case, million is followed by a noun with the preposition of:
    two millions of books. - Two million books.

    English account. Compound cardinal numbers in English.

    In English counting in composite numbers from 20 to 99 (that is, consisting of two numbers - tithes and units), a hyphen (dash) is placed between tens and the units following them:

    Some rules for translating numerals into English:

    1. Russian Genitive nouns after cardinal numbers it does not follow translate into English a noun with the preposition of (a common mistake):

    In the VoxBook audio course in the tale "JACK THE GIANT-KILLER" from the collection English Fairy Tales, in which this particular case occurs:

    ...he is a huge and monstrous giant [he is a huge and monstrous giant] with three heads [with three heads]; he'll fight five hundred men in armor [he will defeat/conquer five hundred men in armor], and make them fly before him [and "make" = make them run in front of him]."

    (English Fairy Tales - "JACK THE GIANT-KILLER")

    2. Russian noun in the singular after compound numbers ending in one (one, one), should be translated into English as a plural noun:
    twenty one day - twenty one day
    three hundred and fifty one books three hundred and fifty-one book

    3. Cardinal numbers can be used as a definition after the word being defined. This is especially true for the cases of designating page numbers, paragraphs, chapters and parts of books, house numbers, rooms, sizes of clothes and shoes, bus numbers and has the meaning of an ordinal number, although it is replaced by a cardinal number:
    part two - the second part
    chapter seven - the seventh chapter
    Read lesson three. - Read the third lesson.
    Open your book on page nineteen.- Open your books to the nineteenth page.
    He live in apartment 12 (twelve).- He lives in apartment 12.

    4. Combinations of two of my sisters, five of your books, two of his friends, etc. translated into English two language of my sisters, five of your books, two of his friends (not: two my brothers, five your books, two of his friends is a common mistake).

    For example, in the VoxBook audio course in the novel "Treasure Island" by Robert Louis Stevenson, with this example:

    There were six of the buccaneers, all told [there were six pirates, "all counted" = in total]; not another man left alive [no one else survived]. Five of them were on their feet, flushed and swollen [five of them were on their feet, with reddened and swollen /faces/],

    (R.L. Stevenson - "TREASURE ISLAND")
