you what "order" things are in.

COUNTING NUMBERS
All the natural numbers are called counting numbers. These numbers are always positive integers like 1,2,3,4,5,6,......
The counting numbers, which can be counted, are infinite and are a crucial part of number systems in Maths. Learning
numbers is the basic task which we start learning from kindergarten. This is used in everyday life too.

Example,
Tell the time shown in the clock
Counting the number of students in class
Buying number of toffees etc.
You can count the numbers in different ways, for
example,
Counting by 2 – 2,4,6...
Counting by 3 – 3, 6, 9, ...
Counting by 4 – 4, 8, 12, ...
Counting by 5 – 5, 10, 15,...
Counting by 6 and so on.
Both the even and odd numbers are included in
counting numbers. Example, 6 – even number and
9 – odd number.

Reading Fractions
Read fractions using the cardinal number for
the numerator and the ordinal number for the
denominator, making the ordinal number plural
if the numerator is larger than 1. This applies to
all numbers except for the number 2, which is
read "half" when it is the denominator, and
"halves" if there is more than one.

Pronouncing Percentages Pronouncing Measurements


Percentages are easy to read aloud in English. Just Just read out the number, followed by the unit of
say the number and then add the word "percent". measurement, which will often be abbreviated in
thewritten form.

Reading Sum of Money


To read a sum of money, first read the
whole number, then add the currency
name. If there is a decimal, follow with
the decimal pronounced as a whole
number, and if coinage has a name in
the currency, add that word at the end.
Note that normal decimals are not read
in this way. These rules only apply to
currency..
Pronouncing Years
Reading years in English is relatively
complicated. In general, when the year is a
four digit number, read the first two digits as a
whole number, then the second two digits as
another whole number. There are a few
exceptions to this rule. Years that are within
the first 100 years of a new millennium can be
read as whole numbers even though they
have four digits, or they can be read as two
two-digit numbers. Millennia are always read
as whole numbers because they would be
difficult to pronounce otherwise.

Interestingly, these rules apply to reading


street addresses as well.

How To Say 0
There are several ways to pronounce the number 0, used in different contexts. Unfortunately, usage
varies between different English-speaking countries. These pronunciations apply to American English..

COUNTABLE AND
UNCOUNTABLE NOUNS

COUNTABLE NOUNS
Countable nouns (or count nouns) are those that
refer to something that can be counted.
For example: "pen".
We can count pens. We can have one, two, three or
more pens.
Here are some more countable nouns:
dog, cat, animal, man, person
bottle, box, litre
coin, note, dollar If you want to ask about the quantity of a
cup, plate, fork countable noun, you ask "How many?" combined
table, chair, suitcase, bag with the plural countable noun.
Countable Noun have a singular and a plural form. e.g. :
The singular form can use the determiner "a" or My dog is playing. (singular)
"an". My dogs are hungry. (plural)
We can use the indefinite article a/an with
countable nouns:
A dog is an animal.
e.g. :
She’s got two sisters and a younger brother.
Most people buy things like cameras and MP3-
When a countable noun is singular, we must use
players online these days.
a word like a/the/my/this with it:
These shoes look old now.
I want an orange. (not I want orange.) I’ll take a few magazines with me for the flight.
Where is my bottle? (not Where is bottle?)
When a countable noun is plural, we can use it
alone:
I like oranges.
Bottles can break.
We can use some and any with countable nouns:
I've got some dollars.
Have you got any pens?
We can use a few and many with countable
nouns:
I've got a few dollars.
I haven't got many pens.
UNCOUNTABLE NOUNS
In English grammar, some things are seen as a whole or mass. These are called uncountable nouns, because they

research, traffic, travel.

DAYS OF THE WEEK

MONTH
WRITING THE DATE

Writing the date


Writing the date We write the date in English in different ways. The most common way in British English
is to write the day of the month first, then the month (starting with a capital letter) and then the year:
ex: 27 November 1992
We can also write the date in numbers only: 27/11/92, 27-11-1992, etc-
Sometimes the last two letters of he number as spoken can be used (th, rd, st, nd):
Today is the 7th September.
The grand opening is on 1st June. or ... on June 1st.
With the exception of May and June, months can be shortened as follows: Jan, Feb, Mar, Apr, Jul, Aug,
Sept, Oct, Nov, Dec.

Here are several different ways to write the date


in English. They vary from formal to informal,
and there are differences between British and
American English. The following table shows
some typical formats.

In written American English, the Some nouns always have plural form
month of the date comes but they are uncountable because we
before the day and year. For example, cannot use numbers with them.
Independence Day in the e.g. :
USA is on July 4th each year. In the I bought two pairs of trousers.
year 2000 the date was Not : I bought two trousers.
4/7/2000 in British English. In
American English this is written Other nouns of this type are: shorts,
7/4/2000. pants, pyjamas, glasses (for the eyes),
binoculars, scissors.

We talk about years like this:


• Before the year 2000 Typical error
1492: fourteen ninety-two Make sure you use the correct
1700: seventeen hundred abbreviated form. e.g. :
• After the year 2000 My birthday is the 28th of January.
