1. Number from 1 to 19:
Zéro - 0 un - 1 deux - 2 trois - 3 quatre - 4 cinq - 5 six - 6 sept - 7 huit - 8 neuf - 9 |
dix - 10 |
2. Number from 20 to 100:
+ For 20 to 60:
vingt - 20
trente - 30
quarante - 40
cinquante - 50
soixante - 60
+ For 21, 31, 41,... to 61:
We would say “twenty and one,” and so on.
For example:
vingt-et-un = 21
trente-et-un = 31
soixante-et-un = 61
+ For the rest of the numbers between 20 and 69:
Just add a dash between two numbers:
For example:
vingt-deux = 22
trente-cinq = 35
cinquante-sept = 57
soixante-neuf = 69
+ Starting from 70:
We would say “sixty-ten”. Remember to still add “et” for 71.
For example:
soixante-dix = 70
soixante-et-onze = 71
soixante-douze = 72
soixante-dix-huit = 78
+ Starting from 80 until 99:
We would say “four twenties”
For example:
quatre-vingt = 80
quatre-vingt-un = 81
quatre-vingt-deux = 82
quatre-vingt-dix = 90
quatre-vingt-onze = 91
quatre-vingt-dix-sept = 97
3. From 100 onwards:
cent = 100
deux cents = 200
mille = 1,000
dix mille = 10,000
cent mille = 100,000
un million = 1,000,000
deux millions = 2,000,000
un milliard = 1,000,000,000
181 = cent-quatre-vingt-un
634,985 = six-cents-trente-quatre-mille-neuf-cents-quatre-vingt-cinq
