I recommend you to practice if you

want to remember your numbers in

french.

CHIFFRES, NUMROS,
NOMBRES
10 is a nombre ou numro!

Un chiffre is used to express a digit.

( 1, 2, 3,4,5,6,7,8,9)
dix is un nombre, made from Les Chiffres 1
and 0.
Le numro is used to refer to street / phone /

house numbers and room numbers.

CHIFFRES, NUMROS,
NOMBRES [ 11 to 20 ]
Numbers 11 to 16 all end with 'ze'.
Numbers 17, 18 and 19 are directly

translated to be 'ten-seven','ten-eight' and

'ten-nine'.
17,18,19 and a lot of other numbers that

are a ten unit + something else use a

hyphen!

CHIFFRES, NUMROS, NOMBRES

[ 21 - 30 ]

The only thing to note here is

that 21 is referred to as '20

and 1'.
'et' is 'and' in French
Trente is 30

CHIFFRES, NUMROS, NOMBRES [ 31 40 ]

Notice some familiarity here?

Numbers 31 to 40 are simple match

the same pattern as numbers 21 - 30.

Again worth remembering that 31 is

referred to as '30 and 1'.

40 is quarante
Quatre, quatorze, quarante

Numbers 41 to 50 are again
represented the same way as
21-30 and 31-40.

70: in french is equal to 60 and

10
Like 17 , 18, and 19
You remember: dix-sept, dix-

huit, dix-neuf
So, how do you say 70 in french
?

Soixante-dix

70 and 60, 10 !
This is where things start to

go a little bit strange.

Numbers 60 - 69 are all 60 +
another number.
ie. 63 = 60 + 3 = soixantetrois
and
73 = 60 + 13 = soixantetreize

A little guess please
Cinquante trente
Soixante vingt
Huit dix
Non non non
Its simple
Quatre- vingt = 80

FOUR x TWENTY (of

course!):
In French 80 is refered to as four
twenties.
80 - 89 are all refered to as 80 + another
number
ie. 83 = quatre-vingt-trois
and
93 = 80 + 13 = quatre-vingt-treize.
Notice that 81 is not written like 41,51
etc..

Counting 100+
Overview:

Now being able to say and recognise the

numbers in French up to 100 is good. But at
the same time a bit limited, now it's time to
take a look at all those other numbers
between 100 and Infinity !
Objective:
Understand how to construct numbers from
100 to infinity (..and beyond!)

NOMBRES > 100 !

If you can remember all the numbers up to 100 then

numbers greater than 100 are actually quite

straightforward.

MULTIPLE 20's and 100's:When you have multiple

'vingt' OR 'cent' expressions they are written plural

ie. 80 = quatre-vingts
400 = quatre cents
..BUT..
'cent' only takes an S when it is more than 100 and
not followed by another number.
ie. 210 = deux cent dix! (No 'S')
Mille (1000) though is never plural !
ie. 8000 = huit mille!
