    Numbers 0-199

    In this lesson, we will cover numbers 0 to 199. Additionally, we will practice the question words "cuántos/cuántas" (how many) and the expressions "hay" (there is/are) and "no hay" (there isn’t/aren’t).

    Números 0-10

    0 cero
    1 uno (When adding with a noun, "uno" changes to "un" before masculine nouns (un día) and "una" before feminine nouns (una noche).
    2 dos
    3 tres

    6 seis
    7 siete
    8 ocho
    9 nueve
    10 diez

    Números 11-15

    11 once
    12 doce
    13 trece
    14 catorce
    15 quince

    Números 16-19

    16 dieciséis
    17 diecisiete
    18 dieciocho
    19 diecinueve

    Números 20-29

    20 veinte
    21 veintiuno (use veintiún/ventiuna before a noun: "veintiún días; ventiuna noches")
    22 veintidós
    23 veintitrés
    24 veinticuatro
    25 veinticinco
    26 veintiséis
    27 veintisiete
    28 veintiocho
    29 veintinueve

    Números 30-90

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

    Números 30 to 99

    Add “y” between the tenths and the ones when expressing numbers 30 to 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 to 199

    Use "ciento" instead of "cien" to refer to numbers from 101 to 199.

    101 ciento uno
    143 ciento cuarenta y tres
    154 ciento cincuenta y cuatro
    186 ciento ochenta y seis
    199 ciento noventa y nueve

    Cuántos, cuántas, hay, and no hay

    • To ask how much or how many, use: cuánto/a, cuánto/s, or cuánta/s depending on the gender and number of the noun you are using.

    To express existence (there is/there are) use "hay." For the lack of it use "no hay" (there is not / there are not)

    • ¿Cuántos días hay en una semana? (how many days are there in a week?)
      • Hay siete días en una semana.
    • ¿Hay cien personas en el concierto? (Are there one hundred people in the concert?)
      • No hay cien personas. Hay muchas más personas.

    Counting vs. Describing Quantity with "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 lot)? (181 coches)
      • Hay ciento ochenta y un coches en este estacionamiento.
