== Overview of Cardinal Numbers ==


To begin with, numbers are an essential part of any language, and Haitian is no exception. The cardinal numbers represent quantities, and it is essential to know them to express numerical values in Haitian. So let us start with the basic numbers:
Cardinal numbers are the numbers we use for counting. In Haitian, these numbers are essential for everyday interactions. Let’s dive into how these numbers work!

Let's start with the basics. Below is a table displaying the cardinal numbers from '''zero to ten''' in Haitian:
== Numbers 0-10 ==
Here are the numbers from 0 to 10 in Haitian:


{| class="wikitable"
{| class="wikitable"

|-
| neuf || nèf || Nine
 
| 9 || nèf || nine
 
|-
|-
| dix || dees || Ten
 
| 10 || dis || ten
 
|}
|}


It is important to take note of the pronunciation of the numbers, as it can be tricky for non-native speakers to grasp.
As you can see, the pronunciation in Haitian can be quite different from English. Listening to a native speaker can help solidify your understanding!
 
=== Counting from 11 to 20 ===


== Numbers 11-20 ==
Now, let’s look at the numbers from '''eleven to twenty'''. This range introduces some unique formations in Haitian numbers. Below is the corresponding table:
The numbers from 11 to 20 follow a similar pattern in Haitian. They are formed by using the word for ten (dix) and adding the corresponding digits from 1 to 9:


{| class="wikitable"
{| class="wikitable"
! Haitian !! Pronunciation !! English
! Haitian !! Pronunciation !! English
|-
|-
| onze || ohn-z || Eleven
 
| 11 || onz || eleven
 
|-
|-
| douze || dooz || Twelve
 
| 12 || douze || twelve
 
|-
 
| 13 || trèz || thirteen
 
|-
|-
| treize || trehz || Thirteen
 
| 14 || katòz || fourteen
 
|-
|-
| quatorze || ka-tohz || Fourteen
 
| 15 || kenz || fifteen
 
|-
|-
| quinze || ka-ze || Fifteen
 
| 16 || sèz || sixteen
 
|-
|-
| seize || sez || Sixteen
 
| 17 || disèt || seventeen
 
|-
|-
| dix-sept || dee-set || Seventeen
 
| 18 || dizuit || eighteen
 
|-
|-
| dix-huit || dee-wit || Eighteen
 
| 19 || diznèf || nineteen
 
|-
|-
| dix-neuf || dee-nef || Nineteen
 
| 20 || venty || twenty
 
|}
|}


Note that dix-sept, dix-huit, and dix-neuf are formed by adding dix (ten) to the corresponding digits 7, 8, and 9.
Notice how the numbers '''eleven through nineteen''' build upon the base of ten. It's an important pattern that will help you in your counting!


== Numbers 20-100 ==
=== Counting from 21 to 100 ===
After the number twenty, Haitian follows a pattern similar to English. Twenty is vingt in Haitian, and numbers 21-29 are formed by adding the digit to vingt (with a hyphen between them). For example, twenty-one is vingt-et-un.


Here are the numbers from 20 to 100 in Haitian:
Next, we’ll break down the numbers from '''twenty-one to one hundred'''. As we progress, you'll see how numbers combine to create higher values.
 
== Counting from 21 to 30
 
Here’s how numbers from twenty-one to thirty look in Haitian:


{| class="wikitable"
{| class="wikitable"
! Haitian !! Pronunciation !! English

|-
|-
| vingt || vhent || Twenty
 
| 21 || venty-en || twenty-one
 
|-
|-
| vingt-et-un || vhent-eh-un || Twenty-one
 
| 22 || venty-de || twenty-two
 
|-
|-
| trente || trènt || Thirty
 
| 23 || venty-twa || twenty-three
 
|-
|-
| quarante || ka-raht || Forty
 
| 24 || venty-kat || twenty-four
 
|-
|-
| cinquante || sank-ant || Fifty
 
| 25 || venty-senk || twenty-five
 
|-
|-
| soixante || swa-sahnt || Sixty
 
| 26 || venty-sis || twenty-six
 
|-
|-
| soixante-dix || swa-sahnt-deez || Seventy
 
| 27 || venty-sèt || twenty-seven
 
|-
|-
| quatre-vingts || ka-treh-vehnt || Eighty
 
| 28 || venty-uit || twenty-eight
 
|-
|-
| quatre-vingts-dix || ka-treh-vehnt-deez || Ninety
 
| 29 || venty-nèf || twenty-nine
 
|-
|-
| cent || sehnt || One hundred
 
| 30 || trant || thirty
 
|}
|}


Note that Haitian uses the word quatre-vingts for eighty (literally, four twenties) and quatre-vingts-dix for ninety (literally, four twenties ten).
== Counting from 31 to 40
 
Now let’s look at the next set, from '''thirty-one to forty''':

Overview of Cardinal Numbers[edit | edit source]

Cardinal numbers are the numbers we use for counting. In Haitian, these numbers are essential for everyday interactions. Let’s dive into how these numbers work!

Counting from 0 to 10[edit | edit source]

Let's start with the basics. Below is a table displaying the cardinal numbers from zero to ten in Haitian:

Haitian Pronunciation English
0 zewo zero
1 en one
2 de two
3 twa three
4 kat four
5 senk five
6 sis six
7 sèt seven
8 uit eight
9 nèf nine
10 dis ten

As you can see, the pronunciation in Haitian can be quite different from English. Listening to a native speaker can help solidify your understanding!

Counting from 11 to 20[edit | edit source]

Now, let’s look at the numbers from eleven to twenty. This range introduces some unique formations in Haitian numbers. Below is the corresponding table:

14 katòz fourteen
15 kenz fifteen
16 sèz sixteen
17 disèt seventeen
18 dizuit eighteen
19 diznèf nineteen
20 venty twenty

Notice how the numbers eleven through nineteen build upon the base of ten. It's an important pattern that will help you in your counting!

Counting from 21 to 100[edit | edit source]

Next, we’ll break down the numbers from twenty-one to one hundred. As we progress, you'll see how numbers combine to create higher values.

== Counting from 21 to 30
