Numbers ending in uno (one)
If a number ends in -uno, it agrees with the noun it precedes. The masculine form drops the -o, while the feminine turns into -una.
Examples:
- Tengo sólo ventiún euros en la cartera. (I only have twenty-one euros in the wallet.)
- Hay treinta y una mochilas en esta tienda. (There are thirty-one backpacks in this shop.)
When not followed by a noun, a number ending in -uno does not change to un.
Example:
A: "¿Cuantos estudiantes hay en esta biblioteca?" ("How many students are there in the library?")
B: "Treinta y uno". (Thirty-one.)
Numbers ending in ciento (one hundred)
Numbers that end in ciento must agree with the nouns that follow them.
Example:
Hay doscientas mujeres esperando a Enrique Iglesias. (There are two hundred women waiting for Enrique Iglesias.)
Cien is used before mil (thousand) and millones (million).
Examples:
- Gastó cien mil euros en el casino. (He spent one hundred thousand euros in the casino.)
- Miguel tiene cien millones de euros en el banco. (Miguel has a hundred million euros in the bank.)
Uses of cardinal numbers
| Use | Spanish | English |
|---|---|---|
| to count | uno, dos, tres... | one, two, three... |
| to tell the time | Son las seis y veinte. | It is six twenty. |
| to express dates | Hoy es el seis de mayo. | Today is May 6th. |
| to express aritmetic problems | Dos más dos son cuatro. | Two plus two is four. |

Me as a Teacher I am a Serbian native speaker and a language teacher. I have been teaching online for 5 years. I live in Belgrade. I've been... teaching online for 5 years (officially). I love teaching because it's a dynamic and an interesting job. You can teach your students and you can learn from them as well. The happiness and joy of the student + their progresses with their target language = my biggest prize (so my students are the ones who motivate me to work better)and I try to combine: a bit of reading, a bit of writing, a bit of conversation, a bit of grammar and a bit of listening by using different resources. About Me My favorite topics are: 1. Travelling , 2. Foreign languages, 3. TV programs, 4. Films and TV series, 5. Culture, 6. sport, 7. IT, 8. Science My hobbies are: learning foreign languages, horse- riding, reading, travelling, ... I am open-minded, flexible and very positive. If you come up with something interesting to talk about, please, don't hesitate to suggest me and I'll gladly discuss with you about that. I visited: Montenegro, Croatia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Greece, Hungary, Italy, Slovakia and Slovenia. My Lessons & Teaching Style Firstly, I test the level of the target language... I have two parts: 1) Conversational part (here I check their vocabulary and their fluency + I find out their language goals and their needs) 2) Writing part (with that I focus much more on grammar and spelling) For each part, I take notes (I have my notebook for that). Secondly, I personalize my lessons to their goals and needs. I can cover a lot of topics: business, travelling, culture, etc. My Teaching Material Text Documents Audio Recordings Images and Visuals Video News Articles and Magazines Quizzes Example Test Templates Graphs and Charts Homework Assignments PowerPoint Presentations Read more
