    NOTE*the numbers venti, trenta, quaranta, cinquanta, sessanta, settanta, ottanta, and novanta drop the final vowel when the numbers uno or otto are added.

    ** When tre is combined with another number it takes an accent: trentatré (33), centotré (103), milletré (1003).

    I numeri da cento (100) a un miliardo (1.000.000.000)

    100-900 1.000-1.000.000.000
    100 cento 1.000 mille
    200 duecento 1.100 millecento
    300 trecento 1.200 milleduecento
    400 quattrocento 1.300 milletrecento
    500 cinquecento ...
    600 seicento 2.000 duemila
    700 settecento ...
    800 ottocento 1.000.000 un milione
    900 novecento 1.000.000.000 un miliardo

    Points To Remember

    1. uno is used for the number one and the indefinite article a. When using uno as a number in front of a noun, follow the same rules as for the indefinite article.
    un uomo               uno studente
    one man               one student             
    un’automobile         una figlia
    one automobile        one daughter  
    1. Numbers ending with –uno (21, 31, 41, etc.) may drop the -o in front of a plural noun.
    Ha ventun anni
    She is twenty-one years old
    1. In numbers over 999 a period is used instead of a comma.
    1.000 (mille) = 1,000 (one thousand)
    1. Use a comma instead of a decimal point to separate whole numbers from decimals.
    0,5 (zero virgola cinque) = 0.5
    9,95 (nove e novantacinque) = 9.95
    1. Mille vs. mila: the word mille (one thousand) becomes –mila in the plural. Remember: do NOT use un to translate one hundred, or one thousand.
    mille (two thousand)
    duemila (two thousand)
    tremila (three thousand)
    diecimila (ten thousand)
    cinquantamila (fifty thousand)
    1. Write numbers as one word, except when they include milione or miliardo.
    1.300 → milletrecento (one thousand three hundred; thirteen hundred)
    500.555 → cinquecentomilacinquecentocinquantacinque
    1. Milione (plural milioni) and miliardo (plural miliardi) are followed by di when they are used before a noun.
    Questa villa costa 2 milioni di euro?
    This villa costs 2 million euros?
    NOTE: No, costa un milione novecentomila euro
    1. To express approximate quantities, you can use a collective number followed by di + noun. Most collective numbers are formed by dropping the final letter of the and adding –ina.
    venti → una ventina (about twenty)
    trenta → una trentina (about thirty)

    Exceptions: un centinaio (plural centinaia) = about a hundred (hundreds); un migliaio (pl. migliaia) = about a thousand (thousands).

    C’erano centinaia di persone al concerto.
    There were hundreds of people at the concert.
    1. The definite article il is used before a calendar year.
    Il 1968 è un anno importante per il movimento giovanile.
    1968 is an important year for the youth movement.
