    Numbers 0-199

    In this lesson, we will be going over numbers 0-199. In addition, we are going to use question words “cuántos/cuántas” (how many) and the expression “hay” and “no hay” (there is/are, there isn’t/aren’t).

    28 veintiocho
    29 veintinueve

    Números 30-90

    30 treinta
    40 cuarenta
    50 cincuenta
    60 sesenta
    70 setenta
    80 ochenta
    90 noventa

    Números 30+

    Using “y” between the tenths and the ones when expressing numbers 30+-99.

    32 treinta y dos
    43 cuarenta y tres
    54 cincuenta y cuatro
    65 sesenta y cinco
    76 setenta y seis
    87 ochenta y siete
    99 noventa y nueve

    Número 100

    100 cien

    Números 101+-199

    For more than 100 and less than 200, the word “ciento” is used to refer to “100+”.

    Cuántos, cuántas, hay and no hay

    • ¿Cuántos días hay en una semana? (use “cuántos” with masculine nouns, like “días”)
      • Hay siete días en una semana.
    • ¿Cuántas horas hay en un día? (use “cuántas” with masculine nouns, like “horas”)
      • Hay veinticuatro horas en un día.
    • ¿Hay cien personas en el concierto?
      • No hay cien personas en el concierto. Hay muchas personas más.

    Counting numbers vs. Counting a noun with number “one”

    “Uno” is used to count numbers, as in 1, 2, 3 etc. (uno, dos, tres, etc.). When counting a noun with “one”, "uno" needs to be modified to “un” or “una” depending on the gender of the noun that you are counting. Look at the examples.

    • ¿Hay treinta y un días en el mes de febrero? (use treinta y “un” días -"días" is a masculine noun)
      • No hay treinta y un días en el mes de febrero. Hay veintiocho días.
    • ¿Cuántas sillas hay en el salón de clase? (91 sillas) (use noventa y “una” sillas -"sillas" is a feminine noun)
      • Hay noventa y una sillas en el salón de clase.
    • ¿Cuántos coches hay en este estacionamiento (parking)? (181 coches)
    • Hay ciento ochenta y un coches en este estacionamiento.
