Cardinal Numbers:
Cardinal numbers are normally used when you:
count things: I have two brothers. There are thirty-one days in January.
give your age: I am thirty-three years old. My sister is twenty-seven years old.
give your telephone number: Our phone number is two-six-three, three-eight-four-
seven. (481-2240)
give years: She was born in nineteen seventy-five (1975). America was discovered in
fourteen ninety-two
Notice how we divide the year into two parts. This is the form for year up to 1999. For the year
2000 and on, we say two thousand (2000), two thousand and one (2001), two thousand and two
(2002) etc.
The Number 0:
We normally say 'zero' for the number '0'.
BUT when we give our telephone number, we often say O like the name of the letter O.
e.g. 505-1023 = five-O-five, one-O-two-three
Vocabulary for email addresses:
@ = at . = dot .com = dot com - = dash _ = underscore
/ = slash
Wh- words.
Question words are also called wh- questions because they include the letters 'W' and' H'.
