02) Use the short form before a plural noun. For example :

five books : khamas kutub / خمس كتب

six months : sitt ashHoor / ستّ اشهور

nine houses : tisa` boo ee oot / تسع بيوت

03) The number (2) should not be used before neither after the noun. In this special case, you should add (-ayn for masculine) or (-tayn for feminine) at the end of the word in the singular form .

For example :

book = kitaab (كتاب)

two books = kitaabayn (كتابين)

--------------------------

house = bayt (بيت)

two houses = baytayn (بيتين)

-------------------------

library = maktaba (مكتبة)
