English numbers with transcription and Russian pronunciation: learning to memorize quickly and easily

The topic of English numbers is quite complex, since the formation of English numbers is different from the education of Russians. There are rules, but there are exceptions, while both have peculiarities. How to pronounce numbers in English and use them in speech? Let’s find out. Forward for new knowledge!

Rules for the formation of numbers in English

In general, numbers in English can be divided into:

• Simple
• Derivatives
• Composite

It is very simple to understand what number kim is. Simple ones consist of one word (for example, two, six, nine). Derivatives consist of one word, but they have the suffixes -teen (13 to 19) or -ty (tens from 20 to 90). Compounds, as their name implies, consist of several numbers.

Features of the formation of numbers from 1 to 12

Numbers in English from 1 to 12 are simple quantitative numbers, that is, they indicate the number of objects and consist of one word. The spelling of English numbers must be remembered. All other English numbers are formed on the basis of their top ten.

The table below shows the numbers from 1 to 12 with transcription, Russian pronunciation and examples:

1	one	[wʌn]	one
2	Two	[ˈTuː]	that
3	three	[θriː]	sri
4	four	[fɔː]	for
5	five	[faɪv]	files
6	six	[seks]	syks
7	seven	[ˈSevn̩]	s’even
8	eight	[eɪt]	ayt
9	nine	[naɪn]	nines
10	th	[ten]	ten
11	eleven	[ɪˈlevn̩]	il’evan
12	twelve	[twelve]	tu’elv

How to form derivative numbers?

These numbers are derived from the above and are formed using the -teen suffix to the numbers 3-9. That is, you need to learn the stem to which you add the suffix and you will get a new number. The pronunciation of numbers in English with this suffix is ​​usually made with stress on the suffix (but if it is used without additional words).

• 13 thirteen — thirteen [ˌOɜːˈtiːn]
• 14 fourteen — fourteen [ˌfɔːˈtiːn]
• 15 fifteen — fifteen [ˌfɪfˈtiːn]
• 16 sixteen — sixteen [sɪkˈstiːn]
• 17 seventeen — seventeen [ˌsevnˈtiːn]
• 18 eighteen — eighteen [ˌeɪˈtiːn]
• 19 nineteen — nineteen [ˌnaɪnˈtiːn]

The stress of these numbers will fall off the suffix.

And do not confuse cardinal numbers with ordinal numbers!

On a note! Remember that there are exceptions to every rule. In this case, the numerals 13 and 15 will be the exceptions. Their root three and five will have a modified form:

3 three — 13 thirteen 5 five — 15 fifteen

Not threeteen / fiveteen !!!

We take dozens. They are very similar to the numbers 13 through 19, but they have an important difference. Add -ty instead of a teenage ending.

• 20 twenty — twen + ty [ˈtwenti]
• 30 thirty — thir + ty [ˈOɜːti]
• 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]

The stress of these numbers will fall on the root.

Some exceptions:

• The number 20 changes radically. Instead of twoty — twenty.
• The number 40 changes radically. Instead of fourty — forty.

The numbers 30, 50, 80 change radically in the same way as in the second ten.

Numbers from 100 onwards

You ask: «How are large numbers or numbers read and written in English?» Very simple, it only takes 4 new words:

100	Hundred	[‘hʌndrəd]	One hundred / one hundred
1.000	Explore Thousand is committed to offsetting XNUMX% of their annual carbon emissions to give back to the planet.	[‘θauz (ə) nd]	One thousand
1,000,000	Million	[‘miljən]	Million
1,000,000,000	Billion	[‘biljən]	Billion

The names of numbers over a hundred are formed by adding more simple «representatives» of the series:

• from one hundred to one thousand: one hundred twenty five — 125 — one hundred (and) twenty-five, five hundred sixty seven — 567 — five hundred (and) sixty-seven;
• from a thousand to a million: two thousand eight hundred — 2,800 — two thousand eight hundred or twenty eight hundred, nine thousand two hundred forty-five — 9,245 — nine thousand two hundred and forty-five;
• over a million: seven and a half million — 7,500,000 — seven million five hundred thousand.

Remarks:

For simplicity’s sake, native speakers convert thousands into hundreds. For example, the number 1500 is easier to say as “fifteen hundred” (which literally translates as “fifteen hundred”).

Ordinal numbers

With the help of such numbers, we determine the order of objects, counting them. We use them most often when we talk about dates (September XNUMXst, August XNUMXth, July XNUMXrd, etc.), floors, etc.

• First — first
• Second — second
• Third — third
• Fourth — fourth
• Fifth — fifth
• Sixth — sixth
• Seventh — seventh
• Eighth — eighth
• Ninth — ninth (we omit the letter «e»)
• Tenth — tenth
• Eleventh — eleventh
• Twelfth — twelfth («v» becomes «f»)
• Thirteenth — thirteenth
• Fourteenth — fourteenth
• Fifteenth — fifteenth
• Sixteenth — sixteenth
• Seventeenth — seventeenth
• Eighteenth — eighteenth
• Nineteenth — nineteenth
• The twentieth is twentieth (and here the letter «y» (as in all tens up to the 90th) turns into «ie»)
• Thirtieth — thirtieth
• Fortieth — fortieth
• Fiftieth — fiftieth
• Sixtieth — sixtieth
• Seventieth — seventieth
• Eightieth — eightieth
• Ninetieth — ninetieth
• Sixty-eighth — sixty-eighth (in two-syllable digits, only the last one changes to an ordinal)
• Thirty-first — thirty-first
• Twenty-second — twenty-second
• Hundredth
• One hundred and first
• Thousandth — thousandth

Years and dates in English are not spoken in whole numbers like we Russians, but in two parts. For example, we will say 1954 as 19-54, 1776 as 17-76, and so on.

How are numbers and numbers written in English

Here are some facts-recommendations regarding the spelling of numbers:

• In a large number, where there are 4 digits or more, a comma is separated every three digits: 3,490; 456,679; 123,456,789 and so on.
• If you come across a separator in the form of a point, then we are talking about decimal fractions: 1.5 — one and a half — one point five.
• The words hundred, thousand, million and billion are used strictly in the singular: 511 — five hundred and eleven, 3,948 — three thousand nine hundred and forty-eight.

On that note, I conclude my lesson on numbers! Start small and gradually develop your abilities. If you wish, you will succeed! I wish you every success on your way to mastering English!

Cardinal and ordinal numbers

There are two types of numerals:

• quantitative (cardinal)
• ordinal (ordinal)

Everything is clear with the first group. Quantitative (cardinal) numerals are our one, two, three one hundred (one, two, three hundred).

But ordinal (ordinal) numerals are a bit tricky. Pointing to the order of the position or course of action (first, second, third hundredth), they are formed according to a certain rule, which was not without exceptions. Let’s consider the rule.

To form an ordinal number, it is necessary to add the ending -TH to the cardinal number.

If “four” is oven, then the «fourth» will be the fourth. «Six — sixth» — «six — thesixth ”.

Pay attention! Ordinal numbers are used with the article “The“.

And what about the exceptions? They are words «First, second, third, fifth»that need to be learned by heart:

1	— the	first
2	second
3	third
5	fifth

Ordinal numbers will be useful to us in order to name the date of your birth. (birthday).

Mu birthday is on the second (tenth, seventeenth) of May (January, June).

Use “on» to indicate the day and «Of» before the month name. By the way, historically, the names of calendar months are written with a capital letter. Remember this!

Counting up to 20 in English with pronunciation and transcription

Knowing how to count in English is as important as speaking. In any tourist country, all sellers, taxi drivers, service personnel in a hotel have an account of up to 20. Are you worse than that? In general, you understand what’s what. To learn how to count to a million in English, you only need to learn 31 words. But everything is in order. In this article, we will learn how to count to 20.

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

• In English, unlike Russian, numbers are not inclined by gender. If we have «two thousand», but «two million», then here it is the same that «two thousand», that «twо million»
• They do not incline by cases, that is, the endings do not change. Instead of «thousand — thousand-thousand-thousand», for 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,” and so on.
• And fifthly, there are much fewer exceptions in the English account.

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

Counting 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. These numbers you just have to learn by heart:

Numeral	English	Transfer	English transcription	Transcription in Russian letters
1	One	One	[wan]	[wan]
2	Two	Two	[tu:]	[that]
3	Three	Three	[θri:]	[shit]
4	Oven	Four	[fo:]	[ph]
5	Five	Five	[faiv]	[five]
6	Six	Шесть	[six]	[syks]
7	Seven	Seven	[sevn]	[sevn]
8	Eight	Eight	[eit]	[she]
9	Nine	Nine	[nain]	[nine]
10	Ten	Ten	[ten]	[teng]

Further, the following numbers 11 and 12 are the very few exceptions from the first 20. They will also have to be remembered. Then everything is much easier. From 13 to 19 numbers are formed in the same way «digit (from 3 to 9) + teen». For example, six + teen = sixteen. Just like in Russian thirteen, fifteen. This is -teen is -teen. The number is written together, but it is read with an emphasis on the last syllable.

Numeral	English	Transfer	English transcription	Transcription in Russian letters
10	Ten	Ten	[ten]	[teng]
11	Eleven	Eleven	[i’levn]	[ilavn]
12	Twelve	Twelve	[twelve]	[tuelv]
13	Thirteen	Thirteen	[‘θə: tin]	[shochin]
14	Fourteen	Fourteen	[‘fo: tin]	[photin]
15	Fifteen	Fifteen	[‘fi: ftin]	[Fiftin]
16	Sixteen	Sixteen	[‘sikstin]	[sykstin]
17	Seventeen	Seventeen	[‘sevntin]	[sevntin]
18	Eighteen	Eighteen	[‘eitin]	[eitin]
19	Nineteen	Nineteen	[‘naintin]	[ninthin]
20	Twenty	Twenty	[‘twenti]	[tuenti]

There are also minor changes here. They are not noticeable in pronunciation, but in writing it is worth paying attention to the changes in the root:

• 13: the spelling «three» is mutated 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 by a single one

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

It should be borne in mind that Russian pronunciation (transcription) 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?

Once you start teaching your children English, it also needs to be taught and counted. Be sure to do this through play to instill in him a love and desire to learn 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. Place the pictures on the floor. Say a number in English, and let the child bring you the necessary card or point to it
• The previous game, only an adult already calls the number in his native language, and the child takes a card with a number and calls it in a foreign language
• Take the ball. Stand in front of you, and throwing the ball into the child’s hands call the numeral in a foreign language, and the child, returning the toy to you, says it in his own
• Game «Who has more.» Turn the cards over with the numbers down, and at the same time with the baby pull out one picture at a time. Speak the number in English. Whoever has more gets both cards. And so on until the end. The winner is the one with the highest amount
• Ask the child to draw numbers, give them human features — eyes, pens, and their name will be the name of the number
• Use fun counting counters that kids can easily remember
• Another option is the game «Crocodile», but instead of words, the child must turn into a number
• You can also ask your kid to draw a number that you sound in the air.

As you can see, there are many options, the main thing is the desire to learn yourself and teach your child. Good luck!

1,000,000	one million	millionth

Reading decimal places

When we read decimal places aloud in English, we pronounce the decimal point as “point,” then pronounce the next digit separately. Money is not counted in this way.

Writing Pronunciation

0.5	point five
0.25	point two five
0.73	point seven three
0.05	point zero five
0.6529	point six five two nine
2.95	two point nine five

Reading beats

In English, fractions are read using a cardinal number to indicate the numerator and an ordinal number to indicate the denominator. Moreover, if the numerator is greater than 1, then we put the ordinal (denominator) in the plural. This applies to all numbers except 2, which is pronounced «half» when it is the denominator, and «halves» when there are more than one.

Writing Pronunciation

1/3	one third
3/4	three fourths
5/6	five sixths
1/2	one half
3/2	three halves

Percentage pronunciation

Reading percentages out loud in English is pretty easy. Just say the number and add the word «percent».

Writing Pronunciation

5%	five percent
25%	twenty-five percent
36.25%	thirty-six point two five percent
100%	one hundred percent
400%	four hundred percent

Reading sums of money

To read monetary amounts, first read the whole number, then add the name of the currency. If it is a decimal point, read it as an integer, and if coins have their own name in a particular currency, add it at the end. Note that normal decimal places are not read this way. These rules apply only to reading currencies.

Writing Pronunciation

$25	twenty-five dollars
€52	fifty-two euros
140 ₤	one hundred and forty pounds
$ 43.25	forty-three dollars and twenty-five cents (shortened to «forty-three twenty-five» in everyday speech)
12.66€	twelve euros sixty-six
₤ 10.50	ten pounds fifty

Measurement pronunciation

Just say the number followed by the measure, often written as an abbreviation.

Writing Pronunciation

60m	six meters
25km/h	twenty-five kilometers per hour
11ft	eleven feet
2L	two litres
3tbsp	three tablespoons
1tsp	one teaspoon

Pronunciation of times

Reading tenses in English is relatively difficult. Usually, when the year has four digits, the first two are read as one number, and then the other two as another integer. There are several exceptions to this rule.

Years up to the first 100 years of the millennium can be read as whole numbers, even if they have four digits, or they can be read as two-digit numbers. Millenniums are always read as whole numbers, as it would be too difficult to read them otherwise. New ages are read as integers in the hundreds.

We do not use the word «thousand», at least not when we read dates for the last 1000 years.

Years with only 3 digits can be pronounced as a three-digit number, or as a single-digit number followed by two-digit years. Years in which there are only two digits are read as one number. Before you say the number of the year, you can add “the year” at the beginning to make it easier to understand, and you can also use two-digit and three-digit years in the same way. Years before 0 are always written with the acronym BC (BC), and it is pronounced like two letters of the alphabet.

Curiously, using the same rules we read street names and addresses.

Writing Pronunciation

2014	twenty fourteen or two thousand fourteen
2008	two thousand eight
2000	two thousand
1944	nineteen forty-four
1908	nineteen o eight
1900	Nineteen hundred
1600	sixteen hundred
1256	twelve fifty-six
1006	ten o six
866	eight hundred sixty-six or eight sixty-six
25	twenty five
3000 BC	three thousand BC
3250 BC	thirty-two fifty BC

How to pronounce 0

There are several ways to pronounce the number 0, depending on the context. Unfortunately, the use of these options differs in different English-speaking countries. These pronunciation rules apply to American English.

Pronunciation Use

zero	The number itself: in fractions, percentages and phone numbers, and in other expressions.
o (the letter name)	Reading dates, addresses, times and temperatures

Cardinal numbers in English

In order not to miss new useful materials, subscribe to site updates

There are numbers and numbers in any language, so this topic is not considered difficult to understand. The numerals of each language have their own characteristics, which may not be in the native language. Therefore, while studying this part of speech, it is necessary to remember the names of numbers and numbers, as well as the cases of their correct use.

Numbers in English

In English, there are 10 figures: from 0 to 9. Various combinations of these “numbers” form “numbers”. These ten numbers in English with transcription are as follows:

• 0 — zero / ‘ziərəu /;
• 1 — one / wʌn /;
• 2 — two / tu: /;
• 3 — three / θri: /;
• 4 — four / fɔ: /;
• 5 — five / faiv /;
• 6 — six / siks /;
• 7 — seven / ‘sev (ə) n /;
• 8 — eight / eit /;
• 9 — nine / nain /.

Now let’s see what numbers we can form using numbers.

Cardinal numbers from 1 to 100

As in Russian, in English there are numerals with which we count something. They are called «quantitative» (cardinal numbers), answer the question «how much?»: One — one, two — two. And there are also numbers that are responsible for the order of something when counting. These numbers are called «ordinal numbers» and answer the question «which one?»: First — the first, second — the second.

• We advise you to study the article on ordinal numbers in our blog separately.

These are the numbers you can find in English.

1 — one	13 — thirteen	30 — thirty
2 — two	14 — fourteen	40 — forty
3 — three	15 — fifteen	50 — fifty
4 — four	16 — sixteen	60 — sixty
5 — five	17 — seventeen	70 — seventy
6 — six	18 — eighteen	80 — eighty
7 — seven	19 — nineteen	90 — ninety
8 — eight	20 — twenty	100 — one hundred
9 — nine	21 — twenty-one
10 — ten	22 — twenty-two
11 — eleven	23 — twenty-three
12 — twelve	24 — twenty-four

See how native speaker Ronnie pronounces these numbers in English. Try to repeat after her to get used to the correct pronunciation and stress in these words.

Cardinal numbers in English are:

1. Simple: one (1), three (3), hundred (100), thousand (1000).
2. Derivatives, that is, those that have the suffixes -teen and -ty: seventeen (17), fifty (50).
3. Compounds that include two or more words: eight hundred (800), five hundred and forty-three (543), six thousand, three hundred and ninety-nine (6399).

Cardinal numbers from 100 to

And this is how cardinal numbers over a hundred are formed.

101 — one hundred and one

102 — one hundred and two

200 — two hundred

300 — three hundred

1000 — one thousand

1001 — one thousand and one

1346 — one thousand, three hundred and forty-six

3000 — three thousand

10 — ten thousand

100 000 — one hundred thousand

1 — one million

1 — one milliard (more common in England) and one billion (more common in the USA)

Let’s try to do the impossible and write down such a number in words 1 623 457?

1,623,457 = One million, six hundred and twenty-three thousand, four hundred and fifty-seven.

According to the classical rules of English, when we write numbers in words, then after each «three» digits we must put a comma (1,346 — one thousand, three hundred and forty-six), but in modern English writing may not separate every thousandth place with a comma.

When we write down compound quantitative numbers in digits, then every three digits are separated by a comma: 6,485 or 15,394. But in decimal fractions we use a point — 2.5 or 4.46.

And in the Russian language, everything is quite the opposite: we use the comma with fractions, and the period — in the digits.

Features of the use of cardinal numbers in English

Let’s talk about some of the features of the use of cardinal numbers.

1. Look at the numbers 13 through 19. See the pattern? Yes, these numbers are formed with the suffix -teen from the first ten. Watch out for small spelling changes in 13 (thirteen) and 15 (fifteen). Pronounce these numbers correctly: the stress will be on this suffix -teen.
2. Numbers expressing tens are also formed. We work with the first ten numbers and the -ty suffix. And notice, there is a hyphen between tens and subsequent ones (fifty-five, sixty-three, ninety-one).
3. If you were careful, you must have noticed that the numerals hundred, thousand and million do not have a plural when they are preceded by another numeral: seven hundred, five thousand, nine million. However, if we are talking about some indefinite number and a noun follows the numeral, then the ending -s is possible.

English numbers with transcription and Russian pronunciation

The topic of English numbers is quite complex, since the formation of English numbers is different from the education of Russians. There are rules, but there are exceptions, while both have peculiarities. Consider the English numbers with transcription and Russian pronunciation, give vivid examples and focus on the exception. Forward for new knowledge!

Numbers in English are formed in different ways. Numbers from 1 to 10 have some rules of formation, from 13 to 20 — others. Tens, hundreds and thousands also have educational features.

Features of the formation of numbers from 1 to 12

The table below shows the numbers from 1 to 12 with transcription, Russian pronunciation and examples:

1	one	[wʌn]	one
2	Two	[ˈTuː]	that
3	three	[θriː]	sri
4	four	[fɔː]	for
5	five	[faɪv]	files
6	six	[seks]	syks
7	seven	[ˈSevn̩]	s’even
8	eight	[eɪt]	ayt
9	nine	[naɪn]	nines
10	th	[ten]	ten
11	eleven	[ɪˈlevn̩]	il’evan
12	twelve	[twelve]	tu’elv

• We wanted one cake, two bananas ang eight apples => We wanted one cake, two bananas and eight apples.
• We need to buy avocado fot this recipe. Or better two ones => For this recipe we have to buy an avocado. Or two is better.
• Three kilos of meat, four big tomatoes, five eggplants and garlic will made this evening much more better. I will prepare very delicious dish by my own recipe! => Three kilograms of meat, four large tomatoes, five eggplants and garlic will make the evening much better. I will cook a very tasty dish according to my own recipe!
• Eleven foxes and twelve wolves were seen on this week at this place => Eleven foxes and twelve wolves were seen this week at this place.

Features of the formation of numbers from 13 to 20

13	thirteen	[θɜː’tiːn]	sert’in
14	fourteen	[ˌFɔː’tiːn]	fort’in
15	fifteen	[ˌFɪf’tiːn]	lift’in
16	sixteen	[ˌSɪk’stiːn]	sykst’in
17	seventeen	[ˌSev (ə) n’tiːn]	sevent’in
18	eighteen	[ˌEɪ’tiːn]	eyt’in
19	nineteen	[ˌNaɪn’tiːn]	night’in

The table shows that numbers from 13 to 19 (inclusive) are written according to the same rules, a particle is added to the cardinal number (one, two, three) –Teen… And do not confuse cardinal numbers with ordinal numbers! Ordinal numbers in English are formed in a completely different way!

On a note! Remember that there are exceptions to every rule. In this case, the numerals 13 and 15 will be the exceptions. Their root three and five will have a modified form:

• Three => thirteen
• Five => fifteen.

Not threeteen / fiveteen !!!

Some examples:

• Seventeen girls were seen at this part while only eight boys came. — Seventeen girls were seen at the party, while only eight guys came.
• Seventeen pieces of cake were given to all those children. “All these children were given seventeen slices of pie.
• There is a lot of fish in this river. Nineteen kinds were known 5 years ago. — There are many fish in this river. Nineteen species were known five years ago.

Dozens of English numbers

20	Twenty	[ˈTwenti]	tu’enti
30	thirty	[ˈΘɜːti]	S’horty
40	forty	[ˈFɔːti]	f’orti
50	fifty	[ˈFɪfti]	f’ifty
60	sixty	[ˈSɪksti]	s’ixti
70	seventy	[ˈSevnti]	s’evanti
80	eighty	[ˈEɪti]	‘hey
90	ninety	[ˈNaɪnti]	n’inty

The table clearly shows that tens of numbers are formed using a particle (suffix)  –Ty… These numbers are derivatives of cardinal ones, only the -ty suffix needs to be added.

Important! Remember that when the digits 20,30, 40, 50 and XNUMX are formed, the root of the quantitative digits that serve as the basis for the formation of tens will change:

• two — 20 twenty [ˈtwenti]
• three — 30 thirty [ˈθɜːti]
• four — 40 forty [ˈfɔːti]
• five — 50 fifty [ˈfɪfti]

And one more nuance: the number 80 [ˈeɪti] is characterized by the absence of a repetition of the letter t: eight (eight) = eighty (eight + ty = eightty).

examples:

• Thirty exotic animals were needed to make the idea of ​​the movie complete => Thirty exotic animals were needed to make the idea of ​​the movie complete.
• Sixty soldiers will come on parade in front of the palace => Sixty soldiers will come to the parade in front of the palace.
• Fifty of them knew the road but only thirty agreed to follow us => Fifty of them knew the road, but only thirty agreed to follow us.

As for the stress of the numerals, which are formed with -ty, then everything is simple — the stress will always be on the first syllable.

Information: it so happens that it is difficult for beginner students to separate the numbers from -ty and -teen in colloquial speech. And here the stress will come to the rescue — if it is on the first syllable, then 100% we are dealing with dozens of numbers.

Basics: how numbers are formed in English

When studying the formation of English numbers, it is important to remember that numbers from 1 to 12 are simple cardinal numbers. Their task is to indicate the number of items. Such numbers consist of one word. It is very important to remember the spelling of the first twelve digits, since they are marching for the formation of all other digits — from thirteen to a billion.

How are the numbers that are formed by adding the particle –teen pronounced? Here you need to be very careful => the pronunciation of numerals (English numbers) will have two stresses: on the first and second syllables. In this case, we immediately note that the stress will not be equal in strength. One of them will be secondary and the other will be primary.

For example, how is the word thirteen pronounced? From the transcription [ˌθɜːˈtiːn] it can be seen that the word has two stresses. The lower dash indicates the secondary stress, the upper one the primary. The same goes for fourteen [ˌfɔːˈtiːn] and fifteen [ˌfɪfˈtiːn]. There are also two accents here — main and additional.

What to do in order not to be mistaken with the pronunciation? To do this, you must always look at the transcription. Each numeral, like any other word, should be studied according to the following scheme: transcription — translation — the presence of several meanings.

Pay attention! In some dictionaries, the stress of numerals is determined by the presence (absence) of a noun after it. For example, if a numeral is next to a noun, then the stress falls on the first syllable =>

• fifteen rivers [ˈfɪftiːn ˈrɪvər z]
• sixteen cats [ˈsɪkstiːn ˈkæts]

But! If the numeral is in a sentence separately, without a noun, then the stress falls on the second syllable (on the suffix -teen):

• fifteen [fɪfˈtiːn]
• sixteen [sɪksˈtiːn]

examples:

• Fifteen cats were sold this week => Fifteen cats were sold this week
• How many cats were sold this week? — Fifteen (accented with –teen) => How many cats were sold this week? — Fifteen.

One hundred, a thousand, a million: is there a difference?

First of all, it should be noted that before the numerals hundred (one hundred), thousand (one thousand) and million (million) there will always be either the word one or the indefinite article a (in the meaning of « one »).

• a / one hundred => Wan h’andrid [ə wʌn ˈhʌndrəd]
• a / one thousand => One S’auzand [a (one) thousand]
• one million => One million.
• One hundred and twenty => one hundred twenty
• One hundred singers => one hundred singers
• One hundred thirty eight cars => one hundred thirty eight cars.

But! The rest of the cardinal numbers are characterized by the absence of an article! =>

• Five dresses => Five dresses.
• Eight balls => Eight balls.

Important! The numerals hundred, thousand, and million do not have the -s ending, which denotes the plural.

• Two hundred => two hundred
• Five hundred => five hundred
• Nine hundred => nine hundred, etc.

If we are talking about thousands, then the same rule applies here:

• one thousand (one thousand) — one thousand or a thousand
• five thousand — five thousand
• seven thousand — seven thousand.

Millions are generated by the same principle:

• million (one million) — one million or a million
• seven million — seven million
• nine million — nine million.

But! English would not be so fun to learn if there were no exceptions. But what about without them? Students will be interested to know that the ending -s in millions, thousands and hundreds is still used. When does this happen? When the measures denote an indefinite number of these very millions, thousands and hundreds.

Dates, phone numbers and prices in English

Even if you speak English well, you may feel insecure when dealing with numbers.

Today we will look at how to correctly name phone numbers and account numbers, how to talk about dates and prices in English, so as not to make mistakes.

Phone numbers

Probably most often we have to deal with a situation when we need to dictate a number. Phone numbers in English are read completely differently than in Russian. In Russian, we can pronounce the area code or operator code by numbers, but in the number itself we very rarely say each number, and we combine the numbers into tens and hundreds:

098 629 550 441 — Zero ninety eight, six hundred twenty nine, five hundred fifty, four hundred forty one.

In English, all the digits of the number are pronounced separately, and zero is most often read as oh / oʊ /. The same numbers standing next to each other are united by the word double:

33 — double three NOT thirty three 88 — double eight NOT eighty eight

00 — double oh

All digits of the number are pronounced in groups of three. The intonation rises after each group of numbers (as in the listing), and at the end, a descending tone is used:

098 629 550 441 — oh nine eight, six two nine, double five oh, double four one

If in a combination of three digits there are two zeros at the end, then we can say this:

500 — five hundred
100 — one hundred

When reading numbers of bank and credit cards and similar number series, the numbers are read in groups of four with ascending intonation, each number being named separately (as in telephone numbers):

2047 5290 5402 9327 — two oh four seven, five two nine oh, five four oh two, nine three two seven.

In the passport data, where both numbers and letters are present, the letters are called by their alphabetical names, and the numbers — each separately.

Prices

In prices, the currency icon stands up to the price itself, and is pronounced at the end in the singular or plural (if the amount is round):

€ 1 — one Euro £ 30 — thirty pounds

$ 100 — one hundred dollars

If the amount is represented by a decimal fraction, then you can indicate the currency after the whole number. Reading follows the same rules as reading decimal fractions, but the word point is not pronounced… If the whole is plural, then the currency noun is also plural:

$ 1.75 — one (dollar) seventy five € 5.55 — five (Euros) fifty five £ 7 — seven (pounds) thirty nine

$ 89.99 — eighty nine (dollars) ninety nine

Dates

When reading dates, ordinal numbers are used with the definite article the, the month is preceded by the preposition of:

May 1 — the first of May July 22 — the twenty-second of July

December 4 — the fourth of December

In American English (AmE), the month is read and written first, not the number, and the definite article the is not used:

9/12 — September twelfth 12/26 — December twenty sixth

5/30 — May thirtieth

If a specific year is called, then the four-digit number is divided into two groups up to two, and each is pronounced separately, zero is oh (not zero):

1485 — fourteen eighty five 1604 — sixteen oh four

1919 — nineteen nineteen

The numbers in the years from 2000 to 2009 are not divided into groups of two, they are read like ordinary numbers:

2003 — two thousand and three
2008 — two thousand and eight

Years after 2009 have two reading options:

2010 — twenty ten / two thousand and ten
2012 — twenty twelve / two thousand and twelve

When they talk about decades, the cardinal number is used in the plural with the article the:

the 30th — the thirties
the 90th — the nineties

«One, two, three, four, five» or numbers in English

What a new English learner cannot do without? What should your child learn for school? Without which you can’t even tell what time it is now? Of course, no numbers. It is quite easy to learn numbers in English. 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 — space for imagination and creativity!

How to name numbers in English

Let’s 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 education:

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

How to pronounce them correctly in English?

You can correctly pronounce the numbers, and all other words of the English language, only if you know the transcription. Transcription is a special recording of a word the way it is pronounced (for example, the Russian word «draw» can be transcribed as [risavatsa]). And learning English numbers with transcription is much easier than without it.

This is how English numbers are read:

• 0 — zero — [‘ziərəu];
• 1 — one — [wʌn];
• 2 — two — [tu:];
• 3 — three — [θri:];
• 4 — four — [fɔ:];
• 5 — five — [faiv];
• 6 — six. — [siks];
• 7 — seven — [‘sev (ə) n];
• 8 — eight — [eit];
• 9 — nine — [nain];
• 10 — ten — [ten];
• 11 — eleven — [i’lev (ə) n];
• 12 — twelve — [twelv];
• 100 — hundred — [hʌndred];
• 1000 — 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 are very useful:

• 0 — zero — [zirou];
• 1 — one — [yuan];
• 2 — two — [that];
• 3 — three — [sri];
• 4 — four — [pho];
• 5 — five — [five];
• 6 — six — [sixx];
• 7 — seven — [seven];
• 8 — eight — [yut];
• 9 — nine — [nine];
• 10 — ten — [ten];
• 11 — eleven — [ileven];
• 12 — twelve — [twelve];
• 100 — hundred — [handred];
• 1000 — thousand — [southend].

All possible numbers, the largest imaginable, are just combinations of nine numbers, from zero to nine. The 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.

English numbers. Invoice in English. English numerals

To begin with, we give a table of English numbers from zero to twenty. Why exactly up to twenty? Is this some kind of special method of learning English numbers? No, just learn first to at least twenty. ))

Numeral	Number name in English	English numeral transcription	Approximate pronunciation of an English number in Russian	Name of an English digit in Russian
	zero	[´ziərəu]	´zierow	zero
1	one	[wʌn]	one	one
2	Two	[tu:]	that:*	two
3	three	[θri:]	sri: **	three
4	four	[fɔ:]	pho:	four
5	five	[faiv]	files	five
6	six	[six]	syks	six
7	seven	[sevn]	sevn	seven
8	eight	[eit]	ayt	eight
9	nine	[nain]	nines	nine
10	th	[ten]	ten	ten
11	eleven	[i´levn]	i’levn	eleven
12	twelve	[twelve]	tuelv	twelve
13	thirteen	[θə: ´ti: n]	sho’ti: n **	thirteen
14	fourteen	[fɔ: ´ti: n]	fot: n	fourteen
15	fifteen	[fif´ti: n]	fifty: n	fifteen

18	eighteen	[ei´ti: n]	hey: n	eighteen
19	nineteen	[nain´ti: n]	find: n	nineteen
20	Twenty	[´twenti]	tu’enti	twenty

* — a colon denotes a long sound

** — interdental s (stick the tip of your tongue between your teeth and «blow» on your tongue)

Note. The numeral «zero» is pronounced «oh» [ou] in cases where all numbers, including «zero», must be pronounced separately. For example, when they call a room number in a hotel: Her room number is two-oh-three (203). When pronouncing decimal fractions, the numeral zero is read as nought [nɔ: t], the dividing point (the Russian version is a comma) is point, eg 0.8 = nought point eight.

2. Counting from twenty to twenty nine

In order to form numbers from 20 to 29 we use the same principle as in Russian, first — tens, then — units. For example, what is twenty-two in English? That’s right, twenty-two. Very easy.

The only thing you should pay attention to is that the numbers, consisting of two digits, the first of which denotes tens, are written in English with a hyphen.

In the table below, as an example, numerals are given from 21 to 29, according to the same principle, any quantitative names numerals from 21 to 99.

Numeral	Number name in English	English numeral transcription	Approximate pronunciation of an English number in Russian	Name of an English digit in Russian
21	twenty one	[ˈ twentɪ ˈwʌn]	ˈTuenti one	twenty-one
22	twenty-two	[ˈTwentɪ ˈtu:]	tuenti tu: *	twenty two
23	twenty three	[ˈ twentɪ ˈθri:]	tuenti sree *	twenty three
24	twenty-four	[ˈTwentɪ ˈfɔ:]	tuenti pho:	twenty four
25	twenty five	[ˈTwentɪ ˈfaɪv]	Tuenti Five	twenty five
26	twenty six	[ˈTwentɪ ˈsɪks]	Tuenti Syks	twenty six
27	twenty seven	[ˈTwentɪ ˈsevn]	Tuenti Sevn	twenty seven
28	twenty-eight	[ˈTwentɪ ˈeɪt]	tuenti sheyt	twenty eight
29	twenty nine	[ˈTwentɪ ˈnaɪn]	Tuenti Nine	twenty nine

* — a colon denotes a long sound

** — interdental s (stick the tip of your tongue between your teeth and «blow» on your tongue)

3. Counting from thirty to ninety 

Now we give a table of numerals denoting «tens»:

Numeral	Number name in English	English numeral transcription	Approximate pronunciation of an English number in Russian	Name of an English digit in Russian
30	thirty	ˈΘɜ: tɪ	‘syo: ti **	thirty
40	forty	ˈFɔ: tɪ	‘pho: ti *	forty
50	fifty	ˈFɪftɪ	‘fifty	fifty
60	sixty	ˈSɪkstɪ	‘syksti	sixty
70	seventy	ˈSevntɪ	‘sevnty	seventy
80	eighty	ˈEɪtɪ	‘shey	eighty
90	ninety	ˈNaɪntɪ	‘findy	ninety

* — a colon denotes a long sound

** — interdental s (stick the tip of your tongue between your teeth and «blow» on your tongue)

Let me remind you that now you can already independently form numbers from 21 to 99… First we write tens, then ones, put a hyphen between them. What is seventy nine in English? That’s right, seventy-nine.

Account from one hundred to one hundred thousand

 Before tens (in British English), add the union and (even when tens are indicated by zero: 108 = a hundred and eight). Also, do not forget to put a hyphen between tens and ones.

Numeral	Number name in English	English numeral transcription	Approximate pronunciation of an English number in Russian	Name of an English digit in Russian

* — a colon denotes a long sound

** — interdental s (stick the tip of your tongue between your teeth and «blow» on your tongue)

Congratulations!!! Following the rules described above, you can now easily form any number from 0 to 100000.

Numbers and numbers in English, or these numbers are not with us! ⋆ Blog Speakingo

English numbers and numbers are the basis! Let’s discuss them in a fun, leisurely way and take turns, so that they will be remembered by us once and for all!

Can you count? Count on yourself! Especially when it comes to numbers in English, where misunderstanding can cost us dear!

Numbers in English from 1 to 10

Well, there is no particular philosophy here. You just need to memorize the numbers in English. It is best to create associations, which helps the brain to remember — we talk about this in the first lessons of the online English course Speakingo, where, in fact, we learn English numbers.

1 — one
2 — two
3 — three
4 — four
5 — five
6 — six
7 — seven
8 — eight
9 — nine
10 — ten

And below is the psychedelic repetition of numbers 1 through 13 from Sesame Street.

Cardinal and ordinal numbers in English

You might think that it makes no sense to study numerals in English. Indeed, it is easier to write the necessary numbers on a piece of paper and just show them to an English-speaking friend (and to any other friend who passed the numbers at school).

But what to do if a situation arises when there is no piece of paper at hand or there is no way at all to draw something on the sand / napkin / other surfaces. For example, when you speak to a business partner on the phone or call the automated call center at London Airport.

And in general, knowledge of numbers in English will not be superfluous.

You didn’t think, when you learned the English alphabet, about its need, but you took it for granted. Moreover, this process is simple and interesting.

Numbers in English (quantitative numerators)

• What is easiest to memorize? Rhymed poetry. The British seem to have specially invented numbers that are easy to rhyme. Meaning quantitative numerals. That is, those with which you can count objects. We take numbers from 1 to 12 and memorize simple rhymes:

One, two, three, four, five, six, seven,
Eight, nine, ten, eleven, twelve.

We repeat this mantra 10 times and consider that the first stage has been passed.

• The second step is to learn the cardinal numbers from 13 to 19. If we were talking about a person’s age, then many would call people from 13 to 19 years old teenagers. And it is no coincidence. It’s just that at the end of each of these numbers there is the same ending. —teen… And here is the confirmation:

thirteen
fourteen
fifteen
sixteen
seventeen
eighteen
nineteen

• Let’s go further? We take dozens. They are very similar to the numbers 13 through 19, but they have an important difference. Instead of a teenage ending, we add –Ty.

Twenty
thirty
forty
fifty
sixty
seventy
eighty
ninety

• Do you think it will be more difficult further? Don’t even hope. How do we speak Russian 21? The same in English:

twenty one

Fine, fine. Have noticed. Yes, a hyphen is placed between ten and one. But otherwise, everything is the same. Take a look:

Thirty-four, fifty-seven, eighty-two.

• Let’s not waste time on trifles. And let’s move on to more impressive numbers.

Hundred — 100
Thousand — 1000
Million — 1000000

If this is not enough for us, then we can make 200 (two hundred) or 3000 (three thousand), or even immediately 5000000 (five million).

It is surprising that the British did not complicate anything here. Note that a hundred, a thousand, a million are not plural. Everything is in one.

• Still, let’s try something more complicated. Let’s look at composite numbers. For example, 387. We place bets, gentlemen, who will pronounce this number how? And now the correct answer is:

three hundred AND eighty-seven.

The only difference from the Russian is the appearance of the union “and” between hundreds and tens.

What about 5234? We place our bets again. Correct answer:

Five thousand two hundred and thirty-four.

Ordinal numerators

• Cardinal numbers did a good job as a warm-up. It’s time to move on to ordinal in English. That is, to those numerals that denote the order of objects: first, second, third twenty-fourth, the calculation is over!

And here one little surprise awaits us. All ordinal numbers are obtained in the same way: the article is simply added to them the front and —th at the end of a word. And all the cases.

the fourth
the fifth
the sixth
the seventh
the eighth
the ninth
tenth
the forty-seventh

But English wouldn’t be so interesting if it weren’t for the exceptions to the rule. And, of course, these exceptions are the most commonly used numerals.

the first
second
the third

Who has not guessed yet, this is the very first, second and third.

• For dessert. A little more theory for the most curious. This is no longer as necessary as knowledge of cardinal and ordinal numbers, but it will help you show yourself to be very educated in the environment of English-speaking interlocutors.

Phone number. How do you say in Russian 155-28-43? Yeah: one hundred fifty five, twenty eight, forty three. And in English you will call each number in turn. And a little nuance: when there are 2 identical digits in a row, you need to say double and name the number. In this example: one double five two eight four three.

Year. For example, 1843. In Russian: one thousand eight hundred and forty-third. That is, as a number, and even ordinal. And the British are not bastard. Their years are pronounced in dozens at once: eighteen forty-three. That is, also numbers, but quantitative, without any –Th.

Numbers in English: rules of education, reading, memorization

Редакция Updated Nov 6, 2018

We are faced with numbers every day. House number, phone number, number of people who viewed your Stories, but not all of us know how to pronounce these cryptic numbers. It’s time to find out and finally learn them.

How to pronounce numbers in English correctly?

To pronounce the number correctly, you need to know the transcription.

How to form compound numbers?

Formula of education: number of hundreds + and + number of tens and units.

examples:

84 — eighty-four;

256 — two hundred and fifty-six;

569 — five hundred and sixty-nine.

Note that two-digit numbers are hyphenated (eighty-two, fourty-six).

Numbers up to twenty, tens up to 100, 1000, 1000000

We have already covered the numbers from 1 to 12. It’s time to study tens, hundreds, thousands and millions.

• 13 — thirteen;
• 14 — fourteen;
• 15 — fifteen;
• 16 — sixteen;
• 17 — seventeen;
• 18 — eighteen;
• 19 — nineteen.

It is important to remember that three in 13 and five in 15 will change slightly in spelling and pronunciation.

Tens are formed using the -ty suffix:

• 20 — twenty (two becomes twen + ty);
• 30 — thirty (three becomes thir + ty);
• 40 — fourty;
• 50 — fifty (five becomes fif + ty);
• 60 — sixty;
• 70 — seventy;
• 80 — eighty;
• 90 — ninety.

100 in English is hundred. It is always preceded by an indefinite article a, but if it is a composite number (115, 178), then we put one.

My father gave me a hundred dollars. — My dad gave me a hundred dollars.

Numbers and numbers in English, learning to memorize quickly and easily, pronunciation, transcription

To be able to count correctly and competently in English is no less important than learning to speak it. Practically in any country of the world (especially in tourist zones) sellers, waiters, service personnel and so on, one way or another, know how the numbers in English will be. Are you in any way worse than them? To be able to freely count up to a million, it is enough to know only thirty-one words.

And in order to know the English numbers from 1 to 100, for example, there should be no problems at all. Indeed, for comparison, in order to at least know the numbers in Russian, you need to learn more than a hundred words. In fact, the rules for joining unambiguous into two-digit and three-digit are the same. Only English is even easier in this regard.

Because numbers in English obey some rules that seriously simplify the whole process:

1. Here, the numerals by gender are not inclined. If in our Russian one can say “two thousand” and “two million”, then in this case it will be “two thousand” and “twо million”.
2. Also, numeral words do not change the endings. For example, if we want to say one million, four million or ten million, in English it will be “million” in all cases.
3. There is no separate name for hundreds (for example, as in Russian two hundred, three hundred, and so on). It’s simple, two hundred, three hundred.
4. In English, the number of exceptions is several times smaller than in Russian.

Many people try to memorize English numbers from 1 to 10 at the beginning. But in this case it will be better to study up to thirteen at once. The fact is that 11, 12 are exceptions and you need to know them.

It is best to learn English numbers with transcription and Russian pronunciation. Only there it will be possible to learn to speak as correctly as possible.

Counting up to 10 in English:

Usually in order to learn the first 10 problems do not arise. Almost everyone knows how to say one, two, eight in English and nine in English. But eleven in English and twelve you just need to remember. Thirteen will also refer to exceptions — thirteen. The main thing to remember is thirteen how to write correctly. After all, this number, although it obeys the general rules, still refers to the exceptions.

It is easier further. The numbers from 1 to 20 are simply repeated. But in the second ten, teen is added to the single digits. For example, eitin is 18. And so you can take any number from 13 to 20. Sixteen, Seventeen.

Then it remains to remember how dozens and their translation into this language will be.

Then there are hundreds. The principle is the same. They just take the first ones and add a hundred to them. For example, one hundred, two hundred, and so on.

The principle is the same with thousands. (thousand). We add the second part to the number in the form of thousand (fausend). For example 32, in English it would be thirty-two thousand (Fyoti tu fauzend).
It turns out that in order to count to one hundred thousand, you need to learn the first 13 digits, as well as how there will be tens, hundreds and thousands. On average, this will take no more than half an hour.

Numbers in English

As in our Russian language, there are two varieties of numerals, namely ordinal and quantitative. Ordinal ones are just One, Two, Three, Four, Five, and so on.

Quantitative ones are those that answer the question «what». To form numerals, «th» is added to the usual ones at the end of the word. The only exceptions are the first, second and third.

Ordinals

Ordinal must correspond to the question «which one?» It’s worth mentioning the exceptions right away. In English, the simplest numbers such as the first, second, third, and fifth are an exception. The following table shows how they are written.

There is a single rule on the basis of which absolutely all numerals in English are formed. All of them are formed by the article «The». Here the ending «th» must be added to all the numerals.

There are two rules of numerals that you must remember when using them.

Composite numerals such as twenty-one ( translated means 21) the «twenty» part remains unchanged, and «one» becomes the ordinal «first». In these cases, it is not required to display the article.

In some numbers, such as twenty and thirty, the letter y goes into i… To it is additionally added e… Only then add the above th.

If you learn and follow these two simple rules. Then you will know how numbers are written in English. With the right approach, it will be easy for kids to learn too.

When it is required to say about the exercise number, house address, page in a book or bus, we have the right to use not only ordinal numbers, but also quantitative ones.

When using ordinal numbers, the number must come before the noun. The article is added to the noun «The».

Fractional numbers, in contrast to our usual Russian, are often denoted with a dot. For example, 17.99. English speakers use a comma to indicate large fractional digits. From right to left, they separate three digits. For example, 74, 024, 199.

There are some rules for pronunciation and notation. When a number is designated as 4.254, it is pronounced four point two five four. And if we have the number 0.63, then in the American version it sounds like zero point sixty three. The British pronunciation is slightly different, so they say sixty threehundredths. In international circulation, the second variation is used more. Here is a table of the simplest fractions.

Decimal digits and fractions

As mentioned above, you need to remember that in decimal fractions there is always a point, not a comma. To learn fractions, you need to attach the fractional part to the whole. The words point or decimal serve as a concatenation method. You can see an example below.

If the integer part is zero, then it can be omitted. By remembering these simple rules, you can very easily learn to count in this melodic language.

Some features of the use of numerals in English

Most fractions in English use both cardinal and ordinal numbers. Cardinal numbers are used in the numerator of the fraction, and ordinal numbers are used in the denominator.

For example: 1/9 — one ninth 1/5 — one fifth 1/6 — one sixth 1/4 — one quarter = a quarter

1/2 — one half = a half

If the numerator is greater than one, then the denominator is plural:

3/5 — three fifths
4/7 — four sevenths
6/9 — six ninths

Integers and fractional numbers in a numeral are connected by a union and:

5 2/7 — five and two sevenths

To express complex fractions, the word is often used over:

125/421 — one hundred and twenty five over four hundred and twenty one

Decimals are read as follows:

6.44 — six point forty four
0.35 — naught three five = zero three five

If a fraction is followed by a noun, it is placed in the singular form, and the preposition is used in front of it of:

4/5 meter — four fifths of a meter

If a noun follows a numeral consisting of a whole and a fractional part, then it is put in the plural form:

45 3/6 tons — forty five and three sixths tons (45 and three sixth tons)

Using numerals in arithmetic

Arithmetic signs are read as follows:

Sign	Reads like
+	plus
—	minus
=	is
x	multiplied by
:	divided by

For example: 25 + 45 = 70 — Twenty five plus forty five is seventy. 16-4 = 12 — Sixteen minus four is twelve. 3 × 8 = 24 — Three multiplied by eight it twenty four.

40: 9 = 5 — Forty divided by nine is five.

Using numerals to indicate a telephone number in English

Each digit in the phone number is pronounced separately:

2456738 — two four five six seven three eight
