Section Warm-Up
Before we go higher than 100, let’s review the numbers leading up to 100:
| 0 null | |
| 1 eins | 6 sechs |
| 2 zwei * | 7 sieben |
| 3 drei | 8 acht |
| 4 vier | 9 neun |
| 5 fünf | 10 zehn |
* Often “zwo” is used orally in place of “zwei” to avoid confusion with “drei.”
| 11 elf | 16 sechzehn |
| 12 zwölf | 17 siebzehn |
| 13 dreizehn | 18 achtzehn |
| 14 vierzehn | 19 neunzehn |
| 15 fünfzehn | 20 zwanzig |
| 21 einundzwanzig | 26 sechsundzwanzig |
| 22 zweiundzwanzig | 27 siebenundzwanzig |
| 23 dreiundzwanzig | 28 achtundzwanzig |
| 24 vierundzwanzig | 29 neunundzwanzig |
| 25 fünfundzwanzig | 30 dreißig* |
*The number dreißig (30) is the only one of the tens that doesn't end with -zig.
