== Overview of Numbers 1-100 in Catalan ==


== Numbers 1-20 ==
Let's start with the basics! Below is a table that outlines the numbers from 1 to 20, which will serve as the foundation for learning higher numbers.
The first step in learning Catalan numbers is to familiarize yourself with the numbers from 1 to 20. These numbers are the foundation for all larger numbers.

=== Forming Numbers Beyond 20 ===
 
Once you get to twenty, the pattern for numbers in Catalan becomes more systematic. Let's break it down:
 
* '''21 to 29''': twenty-one is "vint-i-u" (twenty and one), twenty-two is "vint-i-dos" (twenty and two), and so on up to twenty-nine "vint-i-nou".
 
* '''30, 40, 50''': The tens are unique—30 is "trenta", 40 is "quarant", and 50 is "cinquanta".
 
* '''31 to 39''': For these numbers, it follows the same pattern as before: thirty-one is "trenta-i-u", thirty-two is "trenta-i-dos", etc.
 
Below is a table to illustrate these patterns.

* Catalan numbers from 1 to 20 are irregular and have unique forms.
=== Continuing to 100 ===
* Note that "zero" is pronounced like in English but without the trailing "h".
 
* Catalan numbers consist of one word only, unlike in English where some numbers need to be hyphenated.
The pattern continues for the other tens:
 
* '''40s''': forty-one is "quaranta-i-u", forty-two is "quaranta-i-dos", and so on.
 
* '''50s''': fifty-one is "cinquanta-i-u", fifty-two is "cinquanta-i-dos", etc.
 
* '''60s''': sixty is "seixanta" and follows the same pattern.
 
* '''70s''': seventy is "setanta".
 
* '''80s''': eighty is "vuitanta".


== Numbers 21-100 ==
* '''90s''': ninety is "noranta".
After learning the numbers from 1 to 20, the next step is to learn the numbers from 21 to 100. Unlike the first 20 numbers, the rest of the numbers in Catalan are formed by combining the words for tens and ones using a hyphen (-).


The rule for forming these numbers is straightforward: take the multiple of ten (20, 30, 40, etc.), add the word for the corresponding unit (one, two, three, etc.) with a hyphen in between. For example, 23 would be "vint-i-tres" (twenty and three).
* '''100''': one hundred is "cent".


The word "i" (and) is used only between the tens and the ones, but not between the hundreds and tens. For example, 425 would be "quatre-cents vint-i-cinc" (four hundred twenty-five). Here are some examples:
Here’s the final range of numbers up to 100:

Forming Numbers Beyond 20[edit | edit source]

Once you get to twenty, the pattern for numbers in Catalan becomes more systematic. Let's break it down:

  • 21 to 29: twenty-one is "vint-i-u" (twenty and one), twenty-two is "vint-i-dos" (twenty and two), and so on up to twenty-nine "vint-i-nou".
  • 30, 40, 50: The tens are unique—30 is "trenta", 40 is "quarant", and 50 is "cinquanta".
  • 31 to 39: For these numbers, it follows the same pattern as before: thirty-one is "trenta-i-u", thirty-two is "trenta-i-dos", etc.

Below is a table to illustrate these patterns.

Catalan Pronunciation English
21 vint-i-u twenty-one
22 vint-i-dos twenty-two
23 vint-i-tres twenty-three
24 vint-i-quatre twenty-four
25 vint-i-cinc twenty-five
26 vint-i-sis twenty-six
27 vint-i-set twenty-seven
28 vint-i-vuit twenty-eight
29 vint-i-nou twenty-nine
30 trenta thirty
31 trenta-i-u thirty-one
32 trenta-i-dos thirty-two
33 trenta-i-tres thirty-three
34 trenta-i-quatre thirty-four
35 trenta-i-cinc thirty-five
36 trenta-i-sis thirty-six
37 trenta-i-set thirty-seven
38 trenta-i-vuit thirty-eight
39 trenta-i-nou thirty-nine
40 quaranta forty

Continuing to 100[edit | edit source]

The pattern continues for the other tens:

  • 40s: forty-one is "quaranta-i-u", forty-two is "quaranta-i-dos", and so on.
  • 50s: fifty-one is "cinquanta-i-u", fifty-two is "cinquanta-i-dos", etc.
  • 60s: sixty is "seixanta" and follows the same pattern.
  • 70s: seventy is "setanta".
  • 80s: eighty is "vuitanta".
  • 90s: ninety is "noranta".
  • 100: one hundred is "cent".

Here’s the final range of numbers up to 100:
