Welcome to the Tajik language course! In our previous lessons, we learned about the Tajik alphabet, vowels and consonants, basic sentence structure, greetings and introductions, and negation in sentences. In this lesson, we will focus on Tajik numbers 1-20 and time. You will learn how to count and tell time in Tajik, and practice using these new vocabulary words in various contexts.

Like many other languages, Tajik numbers have their own specific words, sounds, and rules. Fortunately, the Tajik number system is straightforward and easy to learn. By the end of this lesson, you will be able to count from 1 to 20, tell time, and use Tajik numbers with confidence.

Cardinal numbers are used to count objects, people, animals, and things. In Tajik, we use cardinal numbers to express quantity and order. Tajik numbers from 1 to 20 are:

As you can see from the table, Tajik numbers have specific names and pronunciations. In Tajik, the numbers 11 to 19 are formed by adding the suffix "-даҳ" to the corresponding unit, except for 11 and 12, which have distinct names. Tajik uses a base-20 counting system, which means that 20 is a separate number and not a combination of two digits.

Ordinal numbers are used to indicate position or order, such as first, second, third, etc. In Tajik, ordinal numbers are formed by adding the suffix "-ом" to the corresponding cardinal number. For example:

Ordinal numbers are often used to express dates, such as January 1st, February 2nd, etc.

To count objects and people in Tajik, use the cardinal numbers. For example:

* даҳ овоз - ten voices

To express age and years in Tajik, we use the noun "сол" (sol), which means "year". We also use the genitive case after the number to indicate possession. For example:

* соли 2022 (Soli 2022) - year 2022

To express telephone numbers in Tajik, we read each digit separately. For example:

* манзили ман ҳашт сад ва ҳафтаду се як сад ва шест масиранд. (Manzili man ҳasht sad va haftaddu se yak sad va shesh masirand) - My address is 87-71-16.

To express prices and currency in Tajik, we use the noun "сомонӣ" (somonii), which means "Tajikistan currency". We also use the plural form of the noun to indicate amounts higher than one. For example:

* ман панҷ сомонӣ дорам. (Man panj somonii doram) - I have five somoni.

In Tajik, we use the 24-hour clock to tell time. To ask for the time, we use the phrase "чанд соат ҳаст?" (chand soat hast?), which means "what time is it?". To answer, we use the following structure:  

* панҷ дақиқа сӣ соат (panj daqiqai sii soat) - quarter to six

To ask for the time, use the phrase "чанд соат ҳаст?" (chand soat hast?).

To answer, use the following structure:

* ҳашт соат сӣ дақиқа (hasht soat sii daqiqai) - seven forty-five

Congratulations! You have successfully learned the Tajik numbers from 1 to 20 and Tajik time. Practice using these new vocabulary words in various contexts, such as counting objects and people, expressing age and years, telling time, and giving prices and currency. Remember to pay attention to pronunciation and intonation, as Tajik numbers and time rely heavily on sound and stress.
