The numeral is a part of speech which denotes number or the order of things or persons in succession. Accordingly numerals fall into two groups: cardinal numerals (cardinals) and ordinal numerals (ordinals). Cardinals 1 one 2 two 3 three 4 four 5 five 6 six 7 seven 8 eight 9 nine 10 ten 11 eleven 12 twelve 13 thirteen 14 fourteen 15 fifteen 16 sixteen 17 seventeen 18 eighteen 19 nineteen 20 twenty 21 twenty-one 30 thirty 40 forty 50 fifty 60 sixty 70 seventy 80 eighty 90 ninety 100 one (a) hundred 101 one (a) hundred and one 1,000 one (a) thousand 1,001 one (a) thousand and one 100,000 one hundred thousand 1,000,000 one million 1,000,001 one million and one Ordinals 1st first 2nd second 3rd third 4th fourth 5th fifth 6th sixth 7th seventh 8th eighth 9th ninth 10th tenth 11th eleventh 12th twelfth 13th thirteenth 14th fourteenth 15 fifteenth 16th sixteenth 17th seventeenth 18th eighteenth 19th nineteenth 20th twentieth 21st twenty-first 30th thirtieth 40th fortieth 50th fiftieth 60th sixtieth 70th seventieth 80th eightieth 90th ninetieth 100th one hundredth 101st one hundred and first 1,000th one thousandth 1,001st one thousand and first 100,000th one hundred thousandth 1,000,000th one millionth 1,000,001st one million and first The cardinals Among the cardinals there are simple, derived and compound words. The cardinals from one to twelve, hundred, thousand, million are simple; those from thirteen to nineteen are derived from the corresponding simple ones by means of the suffix –teen; the cardinals denoting tens are derived from the corresponding simple ones by means of the suffix –ty. The cardinals from twenty-one to twenty-nine, from thirty-one to thirty-nine, etc. and those over hundred are compounds. In cardinals consisting of tens and units the two words are hyphenated. In cardinals including hundreds and thousands the word denoting units and tens are joined to those denoting hundreds, thousands by means of the conjunction and: 103 – one hundred and three; 225 – two hundred and twenty-five; 3038 – three thousand and thirty-eight; 9651 – nine thousand six hundred and fifty-one. The words for common fractions are also composite. They are formed from cardinals denoting the numerator and ordinals denoting the denominator. If the numerator is a numeral higher than one, the ordinal in the denominator takes the plural form. The numerator and the denominator may be joined by means of the hyphen or without it:
1/3 – one-third (one third); 2/7 – two-sevenths (two sevenths). In mixed numbers the numerals denoting fractions are joined to the numerals denoting whole numbers by means of the conjunction and: 3 1/5 – three and one-fifth; 20 3/8 – twenty and three-eighths. In decimal fractions the numerals denoting fractions are joined to those denoting whole numbers by means of the words point or decimal: 0.5 – zero point (decimal) five; 2.3 – two point (decimal) three; 0.005 – zero point (decimal) zero zero five. The ordinals Among the ordinals there are also simple, derivative and compound words. The simple ordinals are first, second and third. The derivative ordinals are derived from the simple and derivative cardinals by means of the suffix –th: Four – fourth; ten – tenth; twenty – twentieth. Before the suffix –th the final y is replaced by –ie: Thirty – thirtieth. The compound ordinals are formed from composite cardinals. In this case only the last component of the compound numeral has the form of the ordinal: twenty-first; forty-second; one hundred and first. The numerals ten, hundred, thousand do not have plural forms: four thousand people. But the corresponding homonymous nouns ten (десяток), hundred (сотня), thousand (тысяча) do: to count in tens; hundreds of people; thousands of birds. Nouns premodified by ordinals are used with the definite article: the third month, the first men on the moon. When used with the indefinite article, they lose their numerical meaning and acquire that of a pronoun (another, one more): A second man entered, then a third. – Вошёл ещё один человек, потом ещё.
