Language notes

  • French (cinquante et un)Only numbers ending in 1 take et (“and”).
  • Spanish (cincuenta y uno)Before a noun: cincuenta y un (masculine) or cincuenta y una (feminine).IPA shows Castilian Spanish; in Latin America [θ] (like English “th”) is pronounced [s].
  • German (einundfünfzig)The ones come first (21 is “one-and-twenty”).
  • Korean (오십일)For counting things and for age, the native Korean number 쉰하나 is used.
