1. Counting to 100

2. Thanks to “Sesame Street,” you probably already know how to count to 10.
Uno
Dos
Tres
Cuatro
Cinco
Seis
Siete
Ocho
Nueve
Diez

3. Here’s how you count to 100 by 10s, starting with 10:
Diez
Veinte
Treinta
Cuarenta
Cincuenta
Sesenta
Setenta
Ochenta
Noventa
Cien (Ciento)

4. Numbers 11-15 are each a single word you have to memorize:
once
doce
trece
catorce
quince

5. After “quince” (15), however, you put numbers together like this:
16 = ten and six = y seis
17 = ten and seven = y siete
18 = ten and eight = y ocho
19 = ten and nine = y nueve
20 = veinte
21 = twenty and one = y uno
22 = twenty and two = y dos …
31 = thirty and one = y uno
32 = thirty and two = y dos
41 = forty and one = y uno
42 = forty and two = y dos
diez
veinte
diez
veinte
diez
diez
treinta
treinta
cuarenta
cuarenta

6. And so on and so on. That’s it!
Until you get to 100, that is. But after
that’s another lesson.
