=== Counting in Italian ===
Italian numbers and dates are very important for daily communication in Italy. In this lesson, you will learn how to count from zero to one billion and how to express dates in Italian.
Let's dive into counting! Understanding numbers is essential for various everyday situations, such as shopping, asking for prices, or making reservations. Here's a breakdown of the basic numbers in Italian.
 
==== Basic Numbers ====
== Numbers ==
The basic numbers from 0 to 20 are the building blocks of counting. Let’s take a look at them:
 
In Italian, numbers are divided into cardinal numbers (starting from zero and indicating quantity) and ordinal numbers (indicating position in a series).
 
=== Cardinal Numbers ===
 
Below is a table with the Italian cardinal numbers up to one billion:

| diciannove || /di.tʃanˈno.ve/ || nineteen
|-
|-
| venti || ['vɛnti] || twenty
| venti || /ˈven.ti/ || twenty
|}
Once you’re comfortable with these numbers, you can build upon them to form larger numbers.
==== Numbers 21 to 100 ====
From 21 to 100, numbers in Italian follow a pattern. Here are some examples:
{| class="wikitable"
! Italian !! Pronunciation !! English
|-
|-
| trenta || ['trɛnta] || thirty
| ventuno || /venˈtu.no/ || twenty-one
|-
|-
| quaranta || [kwa'raːnta] || forty
| ventidue || /ven.tiˈdu.e/ || twenty-two
|-
|-
| cinquanta || [tʃiŋ'kwaːnta] || fifty
| trenta || /ˈtrɛn.ta/ || thirty
|-
|-

| quaranta || /kwaˈran.ta/ || forty

|-
|-
| novanta || [no'vanta] || ninety
| settanta || /setˈtan.ta/ || seventy
|-
|-
| cento || ['tʃɛnto] || one hundred
| ottanta || /otˈtan.ta/ || eighty
|-
|-
| mille || ['milːe] || one thousand
| novanta || /noˈvan.ta/ || ninety
|-
|-
| milione || [mil'liːoːne] || one million
| cento || /ˈtʃɛn.to/ || one hundred
|-
| miliardo || [mi'liarːdo] || one billion
|}
|}
 
'''Note''': For numbers between 21 and 29, you combine the tens and units with "e" (and). For example, ventitré (twenty-three) is formed by venti + tre.
Some rules to remember:
=== Telling Dates ===
* In Italian, "uno" becomes "un" before a masculine noun starting with a consonant, and "una" before a feminine noun starting with a consonant.
Now that we can count, let’s learn how to tell dates in Italian. Knowing how to express dates will help you in various contexts, from planning trips to understanding historical contexts.
For example, "un libro" (a book) and "una sedia" (a chair).
==== Days of the Week ====
* "Uno" is also used before words starting with a "z" or "s + consonant" sound, instead of "un". For example, "uno zaino" (a backpack) and "uno studente" (a student).
First, let’s look at the days of the week:
* For numbers from 21 to 99, use the structure "tens + ones". For example, 36 is "trentasei" (thirty-six).
* When there are two or more vowel sounds in sequence, they are pronounced separately.  
 
=== Ordinal Numbers ===
 
Below is a table with the Italian ordinal numbers up to twentieth:

|-
| diciannovesimo || [dittʃanːo'vezimo] || nineteenth
|-
| ventesimo || [ven'tɛzimo] || twentieth
|}
|}
 
Note: In Italian, the week starts on Monday, which is a difference from some cultures where it starts on Sunday.
To form the ordinal number, add the suffix "-esimo" to the cardinal number.
==== Months of the Year ====
For example, "due" (two) becomes "secondo" (second) and "venti" (twenty) becomes "ventesimo" (twentieth).
Next, here are the months of the year:
 
== Dates ==
 
In Italian, dates are usually written in the format day/month/year. For example, "il 23 luglio 2022" means "on July 23, 2022".
 
Below is a table with the months of the year in Italian:

|}
|}
To say a date in Italian, you typically structure it as follows: '''"Il [number] [month] [year]"'''. For example, "Il 5 maggio 2023" means "The 5th of May 2023".
=== Cultural Insights ===
Numbers and dates are not just functional; they are steeped in Italian culture. For instance, many Italians celebrate their name days, which are based on the feast days of saints. This is often more significant than a birthday for many people, particularly in southern regions like Sicily and Calabria.
Another interesting cultural aspect is how Italians often use the 24-hour clock for official times. So, instead of saying "2 PM," they might say "14:00." This can be quite handy when navigating public transportation schedules!
Additionally, did you know that in Italy, it’s common to refer to the first of the month as "il primo"? For example, "Il primo gennaio" means "the first of January." This is a cultural nuance that reflects how language can embody local traditions and practices.

* How to express days of the week and months of the year in Italian.

Counting in Italian[edit | edit source]

Let's dive into counting! Understanding numbers is essential for various everyday situations, such as shopping, asking for prices, or making reservations. Here's a breakdown of the basic numbers in Italian.

uno /ˈu.no/ one
due /ˈdu.e/ two
tre /tre/ three
quattro /ˈkwat.tro/ four
cinque /ˈtʃin.kwe/ five

Once you’re comfortable with these numbers, you can build upon them to form larger numbers.

Numbers 21 to 100[edit | edit source]

From 21 to 100, numbers in Italian follow a pattern. Here are some examples:

Italian Pronunciation English

cinquanta /tʃinˈkwan.ta/ fifty
sessanta /sesˈsan.ta/ sixty
settanta /setˈtan.ta/ seventy
ottanta /otˈtan.ta/ eighty
novanta /noˈvan.ta/ ninety
cento /ˈtʃɛn.to/ one hundred

Note: For numbers between 21 and 29, you combine the tens and units with "e" (and). For example, ventitré (twenty-three) is formed by venti + tre.

Telling Dates[edit | edit source]

Now that we can count, let’s learn how to tell dates in Italian. Knowing how to express dates will help you in various contexts, from planning trips to understanding historical contexts.
