22
Q

In Spanish you use ordinal numbers from 1 to 10. For everyday use, the cardinal numbers are used from number 11

ex. I like the first song on the record

I live on the 14th floor.

A

ex.

ex. Me gusta la primera cancion del disco.

Vivo en la planta catorce.

23
Q

When speaking about the date, ordinal numbers are only used for the 1st day of the month

ex. today is the 1st of May

today is the second of May

A

ex.

Hoy es el primero de mayo.

Hoy es el dos de mayo.

24
Q

Ordinal numbers, like adjectives, agree with the nouns that they describe. In singular the masculine ending is usually -o, and the feminine ending is -a

ex. I like the first song of his second record.

A

ex

Me gusta la primera cancion de su segundo disco.

25
Q

An exception to the rule are the masculine singular forms of Primero (first) and tercero (third), which drop the -o before the noun

ex. I prefer the first to the third record

A

ex.

Prefiero el primer al tercer disco.

Mi primer hijo sera medico, el tercero sera catnate…My first son will be a doctor, the third will be a singer….( for this case, TERCERO doesn’t stand b/f a noun and therefore the -o isn’t omitted, unlike ex el tercer disco)

26
Q

the plural ending has -os with masculine nouns and -as with feminine nouns

ex. January and February are the first months of the year

These are the second vacations that I’m spending in Sevilla

A

ex.

Enero y febrero son los primeros meses del ano.

Son las segundas vacaciones que paso en Sevilla.
