Числовой английский словарь

2015-07-04

Любой язык состоит не только из существительных, глаголов, прилагательных, наречий, но и числительных.Их учат с самых первых дней занятий на интенсивных курсах английского языка онлайн и очно. One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten… Казалось бы, всё так просто. Но далее начинаются года. С 11 до 21 веков приходится произносить парами цифр: 1917 – nineteen seventeen, дальше круче: 1905 – nineteen oh five. А в первом десятилетии 21 века уже читаем иначе: 2005 – two thousand five. А как читать 1900? 1800s? Дальше придётся иметь дело с «нулевыми» 00s. .Кроме годов есть ещё дроби, проценты (в английском мы говорим “percent” без «s»), степени.

Также множественное число отсутствует в конкретных сотнях, тысячах, миллионах, что имеет место быть в русском. И немало бывает затруднительных комбинаций с цифрами. И ведь, как назло, словари подсказывают, как пишутся слова, начинающиеся на буквы. Где же взять словарь, где в алфавитном порядке были бы «цифровые» слова. Как правильно сказать «агент 007», «двухтысячные», «2 в квадрате»? Ну, вот и хочется сказать: Есть такой словарь, он перед вами. Он подскажет, что в современном литературном английском языке порядковое числительное от 21 будет twenty-first, а не twenty-oneth. Научит читать большие числа короткой шкалы, цены. Напомнит, что в слове «forty» нет буквы «u», в «ninth» отсутствует «e», в «eighteen» только одна «t».

Этот краткий словарик даёт понятие об основных правилах произнесения числительных. Многое образуется по аналогии. Всего десять страниц. Не грех выучить всё. И тогда любое число будет вам подвластно.

Cardinal Numbers[]

Cardinal numbers refer to the size of a group. In English, these words are numerals. The numbers from 0 through 9 have the same names as in decimal but numbers greater than 9, there is no agreed upon name for units.

  • 0 — zero (nought) (sometimes pronouced as «oh» in speech)
  • 1 — one
  • 2 — two
  • 3 — three
  • 4 — four
  • 5 — five
  • 6 — six
  • 7 — seven
  • 8 — eight
  • 9 — nine
  • X — ten, dek
  • E — eleven, el, elv, lev, ven
  • 10 — twelve, dozen, doh, zen, unqua
  • 20 — twenty, two-doh
  • 30 — thirty, three-doh
  • X0 — dekty, dek-doh
  • E0 — elty, el-doh
  • 100 — hundred, gross
  • 1000 — thousand, great-gross, mo

E has numerous names because eleven’s (decimal name for E) etymology originates from a Germanic compound ainlif meaning «one left» thus, is a decimal name rather than a dozenal name. The word lev for E is not advised as lev is a root in SDN and would cause confusion e.g. levqua = 10;E but lev levqua could mean either 10;EE or E 10;E

For larger numbers, there are approximately X different systems. The following table show the following names for larger numbers:

The following text will use the Grand system, Ten for X, and Elv for E

In English, all numbers are perfectly regular, except for the word doh on its own can have no one in front of it (10 = doh / one-doh).

If a number is in the range 11; to EE;, and the second digit is not zero, you typically write the number in words separated by a hyphen.

20 two-doh
21 two-doh-one
32 three-doh-two
79 seven-doh-nine
EE elv-doh-elv

The grosans are written in the following fashion:

100 one grosan
200 two grosan
E00 elv grosan

So too are the unands, with the number of unands followed by the word «unand»

1000 one unand
2000 two unand
E000 elv unand
10 000 doh unand
11 000 doh-one unand
87 000 eight-doh-seven unand

For high powers of doh, the same conversion is used for biand, triand, quadrand, etc.

And example number such as 63E 014 791 62X; can be written in english as the following:
six grosan three-doh-elv doh-four biand seven-grosan nine-doh-one unand six-grosan two-doh-ten

100 centillion 303

(there is no consistent and widely accepted way to extend cardinals beyond centillion)

Centillion (10303) is second largest named number after googolplex (1010100) and the largest number with a conventional name.

For long scale, «n» should be corresponding to 6n (106n) instead of 3n+3 (103n+3), and 6n+3 can be either «thousand n-illion» or «n-illiard». Besides, for super-long scale, «n» should be corresponding to 10n (1010n) instead of 3n+3 (103n+3), and 10n+3 is «thousand n-illion», 10n+6 is «n-illiard», 10n+9 is «thousand n-illiard».

We can name all numbers <= 306 digits in short scale, all numbers <= 606 digits in long scale, and all numbers <= 1010 digits in super-long scale.

The numbers < 109 (i.e. <= 9 digits) have the same names in all of these three scales.

The small units are «onety» (instead of «ten») for 101 and «hundred» for 102, besides, for super-long scale, 106 is still «million», but 1010 is a new word «unillion», and 1016 is «unilliard».

Example[]

The number 2100 = 16,25X,715,4X6,93E,005,208,8E9,747,1EE,X06,409,69E,854 that has 35 digits.

In short scale, this number is

onety-six dozillion two hundred fifty-dek elpillion seven hundred onety-five dekrillion four hundred dekty-six nonillion nine hundred thirty-el octillion five septillion two hundred eight sextillion eight hundred elty-nine quintillion seven hundred forty-seven quadrillion one hundred elty-el trillion dek hundred six billion four hundred nine million six hundred ninety-el thousand eight hundred fifty-four

In long scale, this number is

onety-six thousand two hundred fifty-dek sextillion seven hundred onety-five thousand four hundred dekty-six quintillion nine hundred thirty-el thousand five quadrillion two hundred eight thousand eight hundred elty-nine trillion seven hundred forty-seven thousand one hundred elty-el billion dek hundred six thousand four hundred nine million six hundred ninety-el thousand eight hundred fifty-four

or

onety-six sextilliard two hundred fifty-dek sextillion seven hundred onety-five quintillion’s four hundred dekty-six quintillion nine hundred thirty-el quadrilliard five quadrillion two hundred eight trilliard eight hundred elty-nine trillion seven hundred forty-seven billiard one hundred elty-el billion dek hundred six milliard four hundred nine million six hundred ninety-el thousand eight hundred fifty-four

In super-long scale, this number is

onety-six thousand two hundred fifty-dek trillion seven hundred onety-five thousand four hundred dekty-six billiard nine hundred thirty-el thousand five billion two hundred eight thousand eight hundred elty-nine unilliard seven hundred forty-seven thousand one hundred elty-el unillion dek hundred six thousand four hundred nine million six hundred ninety-el thousand eight hundred fifty-four

In fact, the number 1043 is simply read out as «onety to the forty-third». This is easier to say and less ambiguous than «quattuordozillion», which means something different in the long scale and the short scale (in long scale, it means 1080).

Chemical elements[]

This is the IUPAC name of the chemical elements:

(symbol)

0 = nil (l)

1 = un (u)

2 = bi (b)

3 = tri (t)

4 = quad (d)

5 = quin (q)

6 = sex (s)

7 = sept (p)

8 = oct (o)

9 = nona (n)

X = dek (k)

E = el (e)

If the unit digit of the atomic number is 2, 3 or 9, then use “bium”, “trium” or “nonium” instead of “biium”, “triium” or “nonaium”.

e.g. for tin (Z = 42), you can call tin «quadbiium» (element symbol Db), and for gold (Z = 67), you can call gold «sexseptium» (element symbol Sp)

IUPAC nomenclature of organic chemistry[]

Straight-chain alkanes take the suffix «-ane» and are prefixed depending on the number of carbon (sexium) atoms in the chain, following standard rules. The first few are:

Number of carbons (sexiums) 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 X E 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 1X 1E 20
Prefix Mon (Meth) D (Eth) Tr (Prop) Tetr (But) Pent (Am) Hex (Capro) Hept Oct Enn Dek Lev Doz Undoz Dodoz Tridoz Tetradoz Pentadoz Hexadoz Heptadoz Octadoz Ennadoz Dekadoz Levadoz Icos

For example, the simplest alkane is CH4 monane (methane), and the nine-carbon (sexium) alkane CH3(CH2)7CH3 is named nonane. They are named with a Greek numeric prefix.

Cyclic alkanes are simply prefixed with «cyclo-«: for example, C4H8 is cyclotetrane (cyclobutane) (not to be confused with tetrane (butene)) and C6H10 is cyclohexane (not to be confused with hexene).

Branched alkanes are named as a straight-chain alkane with attached alkyl groups (monyl- (methyl-), dyl- (ethyl-), tryl- (propyl-), tetryl- (butyl-), …). They are prefixed with a number indicating the carbon (sexium) the group is attached to, counting from the end of the alkane chain. For example, (CH3)2CHCH3, commonly known as isobutane (isotetrane), is treated as a propane chain with a methyl group bonded to the middle (2) carbon (sexium), and given the systematic name 2-methylpropane (2-monyltrane). However, although the name 2-methylpropane (2-monyltrane) could be used, it is easier and more logical to call it simply methylpropane (monyltrane) – the methyl group could not possibly occur on any of the other carbon (sexium) atoms (that would lengthen the chain and result in butane (tetrane), not propane (trane)) and therefore the use of the number «2» is unnecessary.

If there is ambiguity in the position of the substituent, depending on which end of the alkane chain is counted as «1», then numbering is chosen so that the smaller number is used. For example, (CH3)2CHCH2CH3 (isopentane) is named 2-methylbutane (2-monyltetraane), not 3-methylbutane (3-monyltetraane).

If there are multiple side-branches of the same size alkyl group, their positions are separated by commas and the group prefixed with di-, tri-, tetra-, etc., depending on the number of branches. For example, C(CH3)4 (neopentane) is named 2,2-dimonypropane (2,2-dimethylpropane). If there are different groups, the order is (…, tetryl- (butyl-), tryl- (propyl-), dyl- (ethyl-), monyl- (methyl-)), separated by commas or hyphens. The longest possible main alkane chain is used; therefore 3-dyl-4-monylhexane (3-ethyl-4-methylhexane) instead of 2,3-didylpentane (2,3-diethylpentane), even though these describe equivalent structures. The di-, tri- etc. prefixes are ignored for the purpose of ordering of side chains (e.g. 3-dyl-2,4-dimonylpentane (3-ethyl-2,4-dimethylpentane), not 2,4-dimonyl-3-dylpentane (2,4-dimethyl-3-ethylpentane)).

Alkenes are named for their parent alkane chain with the suffix «-ene» and an infixed number indicating the position of the carbon (sexium) with the lower number for each double bond in the chain: CH2=CHCH2CH3 is tetr-1-ene (but-1-ene).

Multiple double bonds take the form -diene, -triene, etc., with the size prefix of the chain taking an extra «a»: CH2=CHCH=CH2 is tetra-1,3-diene (buta-1,3-diene). Simple cis and trans isomers may be indicated with a prefixed cis- or trans-: cis-but-2-ene, trans-but-2-ene. However, cis- and trans- are relative descriptors. It is IUPAC convention to describe all alkenes using absolute descriptors of Z- (same side) and E- (opposite) with the Cahn–Ingold–Prelog priority rules.

Alkynes are named using the same system, with the suffix «-yne» indicating a triple bond: dyne (ethyne) (acetylene), tryne (propyne) (methylacetylene).

In Haloalkanes and Haloarenes (R-X), Halogen functional groups are prefixed with the bonding position and take the form of nono- (fluoro-), unquino- (chloro-), bielo- (bromo-), quadquino- (iodo-), etc., depending on the halogen. Multiple groups are diunquino- (dichloro-), triunquino (trichloro)-, tetraunquino (tetrachloro-) etc. (use Latin numeric prefix for the atomic number, and use Greek numeric prefix for the multiple group, to not be confused), if there are different groups, the order is by atomic number (from large to small), separated by commas or hyphens. For example, CHCl3 (chloroform) is trichloromethane. The anesthetic Halothane (CF3CHBrCl) is 2-bromo-2-chloro-1,1,1-trifluoroethane.

Alcohols (R-OH) take the suffix «-ol» with an infix numerical bonding position: CH3CH2CH2OH is tran-1-ol (propan-1-ol). The suffixes -diol, -triol, -tetraol, etc., are used for multiple -OH groups: Ethylene glycol CH2OHCH2OH is diane-1,2-diol (ethane-1,2-diol).

IUPAC nomenclature of inorganic chemistry[]

Hydrates are ionic compounds that have absorbed water. They are named as the ionic compound followed by a numerical prefix and -hydrate. The numerical prefixes used are listed below (see IUPAC numerical multiplier):

1. mono-
2. di-
3. tri-
4. tetra-
5. penta-
6. hexa-
7. hepta-
8. octa-
9. enna-
X. deka-
E. leva-
10. doza-

For example, CuSO4·5H2O is «biquinium(II) unquadate pentahydrate».

  • The Roman numbers are:

1 = I, 2 = II, 3 = III, 4 = IIV, 5 = IV, 6 = V, 7 = VI, 8 = VII, 9 = VIII, a (not written «X» to not to be confused) = IIX, b = IX, 10 = X, 11 = XI, 12 = XII, 13 = XIII, 14 = XIIV, 15 = XIV, 16 = XV, 17 = XVI, 18 = XVII, 19 = XVIII, 1a = XIIX, 1b = XIX, 20 = XX, 30 = XXX, 40 = XXL, 50 = XL, 60 = L, 70 = LX, 80 = LXX, 90 = LXXX, a0 = XXC, b0 = XC, 100 = C, 600 = D, 1000 = M

If higher precedence functional groups are present, the prefix «hydroxy» is used with the bonding position: CH3CHOHCOOH is 2-hydroxytranoic (2-hydroxypropanoic) acid.

Monatomic anions:

Cl− unquinide (chloride)
S2− unquadide (sulfide)
P3− untride (phosphide)
