Números Cardinais e Ordinais em Inglês

Regras de Ouro para Usar Números em Inglês
Guia Gramatical1. Cardinais vs Ordinais
• Cardinais: Indicam quantidade (ex: I have three guitars).
• Ordinais: Indicam ordem ou posição (ex: This is my third lesson).
2. Uso Obrigatório do Hífen
Do número 21 ao 99, use hífen para unir a dezena e a unidade (ex: twenty-one, forty-five, seventy-eighth).
3. Sufixos de Ordinais
• 1st = -st (first)
• 2nd = -nd (second)
• 3rd = -rd (third)
• 4th em diante = -th (fourth, fifth)
4. Vírgula e Ponto (Invertidos)
Em inglês, a vírgula separa milhares (ex: 1,000 = mil) e o ponto indica decimais (ex: $3.50 = três dólares e cinquenta).
5. Como Ler Anos em Inglês
Divide-se o ano em duas partes:
• 1998 = nineteen ninety-eight
• 2026 = twenty twenty-six
6. Datas em Inglês
Datas sempre usam números ordinais na pronúncia:
• Escreve-se: May 4th ou 4 May
• Fala-se: May the fourth
