Learn to Count in Spanish
Previously I worked on the Spanish alphabet, today I am working on Spanish numbers.
I am still brand new at learning Spanish, so again, please bear with me. I may, or may not, make a few mistakes. Please if you see one, let me know
Here is the run down on the basics of learning the Spanish numbering system.
- Learn the basic 1-10
- Then learn 11-15 as they don’t follow the rules
- It gets a little easier from here as 16-19 are easy to follow – see below
- Now learn 20 and the rest of the 20′s (this pattern continues through the 20′s)- see below
- In the 30′s there is a new pattern and it continues throughout the number system untill 99
- Now learn the 10′s and the 100′s and will be a snap
- Lastly, learn the big guys – they also follow the rules
That is how I see learning the system. It actually is quite easy once you figure out who abides by the rules and who doesn’t. I hope this helps you out some, it helps me.

Next project I will undertake on my quest for mastering the Spanish language is working on flash cards. I downloaded a huge batch of templates for making my own, but it is going to take some time to do. Once I have finished, just by compiling the words to put on each card, I should be half way there. Wishful thinking perhaps!
Be sure to check out the other pages on Spanish like the Spanish Widget page I just finished putting up. I love this new widget that speaks to me.
