The theme of English numbers is quite complicated, since the education of English numerals differs from the formation of Russians. There are rules, but there are exceptions, and in those and those there are features. Consider English figures with transcription and Russian pronunciation, bring bright examples and make an emphasis on exception. Forward for new knowledge!

Figures in English are formed differently. Nutritives from 1 to 10 have some formulations, from 13 to 20 - others. Tens, hundreds and thousands also have features of education.

Features of the formation of numerals from 1 to 12

The table below shows numerals from 1 to 12 with transcription, Russian pronunciation and examples:

1	one.		uAN
2	two	[TUː]	t.
3	three.	[θriː]	sri.
4	four.		fore
5	five.		file
6	six.		sick
7	seven.	[SEVN̩]	s'wean
8	eight		eIT
9	nine		nain
10	tEN.		tEN
11	eleven.	[ɪlevn̩]	il'wean
12	twelve.		tu'elv

• We Wanted One Cake, Two Bananas Ang Eight Apples \u003d\u003e We wanted one cupcake, two bananas and eight apples.
• We Need to Buy Avocado Fot This Recipe. Or Better Two Ones \u003d\u003e For this recipes we need to buy avocado. Or better two.
• Three Kilos of Meat, Four Big Tomatoes, Five Eggplants and Garlic Will Made This Evening Much More Better. I Will Prepare Very Delicious Dish by My Own Recipe! \u003d\u003e Three kilograms of meat, four large tomatoes, five eggplants and garlic will make the evening much better. I will prepare a very tasty dish in my own recipe!
• Eleven Foxes and Twelve Wolves Were Seen On This Week at this place \u003d\u003e Eleven foxes and twelve wolves were noticed for this week in this place.

Features of the formation of numerals from 13 to 20

13	thirteen.	[θɜːtiːn]	soot'in
14	fourteen.	[ˌFɔː'tiːn]	fort'in
15	fifteen.	[ˌFɪf'tiːn]	fift'in
16	sixteen.	[ˌSɪk'stiːn]	sykst'in
17	seventeen.	[ˌSev (ə) n'tiːn]	savent'in
18	eIGHTEEN	[ˌEɪ'tiːn]	eit'in
19	nineteen.	[ˌNaɪn'tiːn]	naint'in

From the table, it can be seen that numerals from 13 to 19 (inclusive) are written according to the same rules, a particle is added to the quantitative numerical (one, two, three) -Teen. And do not confuse quantitative numerals with ordinal! In English, they are formed in a completely different way!

On a note! It must be remembered that each rule has exceptions. In this case, exceptions will be numeral 13 and 15. They have the root of Three and Five will have a modified form:

• Three \u003d\u003e Thirteen
• Five \u003d\u003e Fifteen.

And not Threeteen / Fiveteen !!!

Some examples:

• Seventeen Girls Were Seen at this Paty While Only Eight Boys Came. - At the party, seventeen girls were noticed, while only eight guys came.
• Seventeen Pieces of Cake Were Given to All Those Children. - All these children were given seventeen pieces of the cake.
• There IS A Lot of Fish In This River. Nineteen Kinds Were Known 5 Years Ago. - In this river a lot of fish. Five years ago, nineteen species were known.

Dozens of english numbers

20	twenty	[Twenti]	t'anti.
30	thirty	[Θɜːti]	S'Rty.
40	forty	[FɔːTI]	f'tle
50	fifty.	[Fɪfti]	f'Ifty
60	sixty.	[SɪKSTI]	s'Yeksti
70	seventy	[Sevnti]	c'wenti.
80	eIGHTY.	[Eɪti]	'Eiti.
90	ninety.	[Naɪnti]	n'Anti.

The table clearly shows that dozens of numbers are formed using a particle (suffix) -Ty. These numerals are derivatives from quantitative, just need to add suffix -ty.

Important! Remember that in the formation of numbers 20.30, 40 and 50, the root of quantitative digits that serve as the basis for the formation of dozens will be modified:

• two - 20 Twenty [Twenti]
• three - 30 Thirty [θɜːti]
• four - 40 Forty [FɔːTI]
• five - 50 Fifty [Fɪfti]

And one more nuance: digit 80 [Eɪti] is characterized by the lack of reversal of the letter T: EIGHT (eight) \u003d eIGHTY. (EIGHT + TY \u003d EIGHTTY).

Examples:

• Thirty Exotic Animals Were Needed to Make The Idea of \u200b\u200bthe Movie Complete \u003d\u003e It was necessary for thirty exotic animals to make the idea of \u200b\u200bthe film finished (perfect).
• Sixty Soldiers Will Come on Parade in Front of the Palace \u003d\u003e At the parade, which will be in front of the palace, will come sixty soldiers.
• Fifty of Them Knew The Road But Only Thirty Agreed to Follow US \u003d\u003e Fifty of them knew the road, but only thirty agreed to follow us.

As for the thrust of the numeral, which are formed with the help of -Ty, then everything is simple - the emphasis always It will be on the first syllable.

Reference: It happens that novice students are difficult to divide in the conversational speech numeral with -Ty and -Teen. And then an emphasis will come to the rescue - if it is on the first syllable, then 100% we are dealing with dozens of numeral.

Basis base: How figures are formed in English

Studying the education of English figures is important to remember that the numbers from 1 to 12 are simple quantitative numbers. Their task is to denote the number of items. There are such numerals from one word. It is very important to remember writing the first twelve digits, as they are hiking to form all other numbers - from thirteen to a billion.

How are the numerics pronounced, which are formed by adding a particle -Teen? Here you need to be very attentive \u003d\u003e The pronunciation of numeral (English digits) will have two stresses: on the first and second syllable. At the same time, we immediately note that the emphasis will not be equal in strength. One of them will be secondary, and the other is the main one.

For example, how to pronounce Thirteen? From transcription [ˌθɜːtiːn] it can be seen that in the word two stresses. The bottom abnity denotes the secondary stress, the top is the main one. The same applies to Fourteen [ˌfɔːtiːn] and fifteen [ˌfɪftiːn]. Here, too, two stress - the main and extra.

What to do to not make a mistake with pronunciation? To do this, always look at the transcription. Each numerical, like any other word, should be studied according to the following scheme: Transcription - translation - the presence of several values.

Note! In some dictionaries, the emphasis is determined by the presence (absence) after it noun. For example, if the numeral stands next to the noun, the emphasis falls on the first syllable \u003d\u003e

• fifteen Rivers [Fɪftiːn Rɪvər z]
• sixteen Cats [Sɪkstiːn Kæts]

But! If the numeral stands in the proposal separately, without a noun, then the emphasis falls on the second syllable (on the suffix -teen):

• fifteen.
• sixteen.

Examples:

• Fifteen Cats Were Sold This Week (stressing on the first syllable) \u003d\u003e This week was sold fifteen cats
• How many CATS WERE SOLD THIS WEEK? - Fifteen (stress on suffix -teen) \u003d\u003e How many cats were sold this week? - Fifteen.
