TRANSCRIPT:
Hi. I’m Denise. Thank you for watching my video. Today I’m going to talk about how to say numbers in English. I will talk about both the vocabulary and the pronunciation of numbers. Okay? So let’s start. I’ve written some numbers up here, so please watch and listen. This is zero, one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten, eleven, twelve, thirteen, fourteen, fifteen, sixteen, seventeen, eighteen, nineteen, twenty, twenty-one, twenty-two, twenty-three, twenty-four, twenty-five, twenty-six, twenty-seven, twenty-eight, twenty-nine, thirty, and I would continue down here, thirty-one, thirty-two, thirty-three, etc. When I did that, when I said each of these numbers, all I did was say this number which is twenty and this number one, so twenty-one. I’ve written it here, twenty-one. That’s this. Twenty-two, twenty-three. So there’s no extra word in the middle. There’s no and or an additional word. So here it would be thirty-one, thirty-two, thirty-three. As I go down, thirty-four, thirty-five, thirty-six. This is forty, so if I wanted to count down, it would be forty-one, forty-two, forty-three, etc. Okay? So let me continue reading these across. This is thirty, forty, fifty, sixty, seventy, eighty, ninety, one hundred, one hundred ten.
Let me talk a little bit about the pronunciation. When I said this number twenty and all of these other numbers in this column, twenty-one or twenty-eight, I did not pronounce this ‘t’ and most Americans do not pronounce that. You can pronounce it, of course, if you want to. You can pronounce this as twenty, twenty-one, which is correct, but most Americans do not pronounce that. We say twenty-one, twenty-one, twenty-two. So I am mentioning it so that you will understand us when we speak. We don’t usually pronounce that ‘t.’ We never pronounce that ‘t.’ For these, forty, fifty, sixty, for the forty, fifty, for many of these we pronounce that ‘t’ almost as a ‘d,’ forty, ‘d’, forty, forty-one, forty-two, forty-three. So again, I am just mentioning this so that you understand us when we speak. Okay?
These numbers over here in the hundreds should be pronounced as one hundred one in the same way that I simply said this number twenty and this number one, twenty-two, twenty-three, we should do the same thing with the hundreds. So for this number I would say one hundred one. This would be one hundred two. So I would read these as, I should read these as one hundred, one hundred one, one hundred two, one hundred three, one hundred...

Thank you so much for your great explanation and examples! I just have one question, it's correct to say $1,500 as fifteen hundred ? I remember listening to that on a video on Facebook. Thanks in advance for you time and patience! Best regards from Mexico!

[@Coopos]

Yes, you can say fifteen hundred, but remember to add the word 'dollars.' Fifteen hundred dollars or one thousand five hundred dollars.

[@TheGameLecturer]

What I would like to know is when do you say "two o one" for 201, is it just for rooms and classes ? And would you say "five fourty two" for 542 ? And when do you say "fifteen hundred" for 1,500 ?

[@Coopos]

We also say "two o one" for the time 2:01 and sometimes for money $2.01. A cashier might say the price you owe for something is "two o one." Yes, I would say "five forty-two" for rooms, classes, time, and money. I would say "fifteen hundred" when there is no comma 1500.

[@davidhaines2894]

I'm sure someone will have added a comment on this below, but in the UK we ALWAYS put the "and" in "one hundred and twenty" etc - in my experience it is never omitted. However, I've spent a lot of time in the USA, and I've very frequently (nearly always) heard people miss out the "and" in normal conversation, so I was a little surprised that you say that most people insert the "and". But, almost all my friends in the States are scientists, so maybe that's why!! I'm always fascinated by the differences between American and British English. They are numerous, fascinating and sometimes hilarious! Thank you.

[@Coopos]

Thank you for your comment! You are one of few who agree with me in these comments. Yes, it seems likely that the reason you often hear the 'and' omitted is because your friends are scientists. Maybe only people who have heard or learned the so-called 'rules' omit the 'and.' These rules were taught to me by multiple math teachers. 😊 I think most people say 'and' colloquially.

[@getmeagator]

I was taught the word "and" should ONLY be used when denoting a fraction or decimal after the whole number. Such as "355.4" would be "Three hundred fifty-five and four tenths." Not, "Three hundred and fifty-five and four tenths." Although it is common to insert the "and" as described in the video, it's just a "fluff" word that ought be omitted for more concise speech.
