Numbers & Counting

This lesson is coming soon.

What you’ll learn:

  • Numbers 1–20 (eins, zwei, drei… many are cognates: sechs=six, sieben=seven)
  • Numbers 21–99 — German says them “backwards”: 21 = einundzwanzig (one-and-twenty)
  • Hundreds, thousands, and beyond
  • How to say prices, phone numbers, and dates
  • Ordinal numbers: erste (first), zweite (second), dritte (third)
  • The quirks: “zwei” sometimes becomes “zwo” on the phone (to avoid confusion with “drei”)
