Hi Standard Latvian learners! 😊
In this lesson, we will focus on learning how to count from 1 to 10 in Standard Latvian. Numbers are fundamental in any language, and it is essential to have a good knowledge of them to be able to communicate effectively. This lesson is an intermediate level, so it's perfect for those who already have some knowledge of Latvian. Don't worry if you're a beginner, though; I'm sure you'll pick it up in no time!
Learn How to Count from 1 to 10 in Standard Latvian
Let's start by looking at the numbers from 1 to 10 in Standard Latvian. Here's a table to help you:
Standard Latvian | Pronunciation | English |
---|---|---|
viens | [viens] (vee-ehns) | one |
divi | [divi] (dee-vee) | two |
trīs | [tri:s] (trees) | three |
četri | [tʃetʃɹi] (chuh-tree) | four |
pieci | [pi:etsi] (pee-yets-ee) | five |
seši | [seʃi] (seh-shi) | six |
septiņi | [septini] (sehp-tee-nee) | seven |
