CARDINAL AND ORDINAL NUMBERS

Let's start

DEFINITION

A Cardinal Number is a number that says how many of something there are (cuantos hay) , such as one, two, three, four, five. An Ordinal Number is a number that tells the position (posición) of something in a list, such as 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th etc. Most ordinal numbers end in «th» except for: one ⇒ first (1st) two ⇒ second (2nd) three ⇒ third (3rd)

WITRING DATES: THE CARDINALS VS. THE ORDINALS

QUESTION

  • For example, in a classroom, it is common to teach students to write dates using ordinal numbers. This practice helps students become familiar with the concepts of order and sequence, in addition to following established writing conventions. Therefore, in a school environment, the use of ordinal numbers to write dates should be encouraged.
  • When I’m writing something that has dates included in it, how do I know when to use 1st or 5th when listing a date instead of just writing the number by itself? What is this called, anyways?

ORDINAL NUMBERS First (primero) Second (segundo) Third (tercero) Fourth (cuarto) Fifth (quinto) Sixth (sexto) Seventh (séptimo) Eighth (octavo) Ninth (noveno) Tenth (décimo)
