3.5.0: Vocabulario

Look back at 1.5 Gramática to review numbers 1-30. Remember that numbers less than 30 are only one word. In this section we will learn how to form numbers 31-100.

It is important to memorize the tens digits in Spanish.

30	treinta
40	cuarenta
50	cincuenta
60	sesenta
70	setenta

To form a double digit number, simply use ¨y¨ (and) after your tens digit.

Cien is used for 100 on the dot. Any number past 100 changes to ¨ciento....¨ and follows the pattern with the tens and ones digits.

Modelo:

• 101 – ciento uno
• 137 - ciento treinta y siete
