Numbers
(2nd of 3) |
Here are the numbers from 1-20:
Numbers above 20 are generally formed as follows:
Numbers 22-29, 32-39, 42-49, 52-59, and 62-69 are constructed by adding a hyphen to the base (vingt, trente, quarante, cinquante, or soixante) and the numbers 2-9. *An s is added to quatre-vingt when it is not followed by another number.
Numbers 70 (soixante-dix) - 79 (soixante-dix-neuf) add the numbers 10-19 (dix to dix-neuf) to the base soixante (60). Numbers 90 (quatre-vingt-dix) 99 (quatre-vingt-dix-neuf) add the numbers 10-19 (dix to dix-neuf) to the base quatre-vingts (80).
