How German numbers work: 5 patterns

Learn 0–12 and the tens; from 21 every number is the unit, und and the ten in one word.

  1. 1

    0–12 have their own words

    0null1eins2zwei3drei4vier5fünf6sechs7sieben8acht9neun10zehn11elf12zwölf

    elf and zwölf are learned by heart like 0–10.

  2. 2

    13–19: unit + zehn

    3 + 10 dreizehn

    dreizehn, vierzehn, fünfzehn … Two are shortened: sechzehn (not sechszehn) and siebzehn (not siebenzehn).

  3. 3

    21–99: unit + und + ten, one word

    1 und 20 einundzwanzig

    German reads 21 as “one and twenty”: einundzwanzig, zweiundvierzig, neunundneunzig. Prices and phone numbers are read the same way, so listen for the unit first.

  4. 4

    The tens end in -zig, except 30

    dreißigzwanzigsechzigsiebzig

    dreißig is written with ß. 60 and 70 drop letters as in the teens: sechzig, siebzig.

  5. 5

    eins, ein and zwo

    Alone and at the end of a number it is eins (hunderteins, 101); before und and before a noun it is ein: einundzwanzig, ein Buch. On the phone you often hear zwo for 2, so it is not mixed up with drei.

Big numbers in German: hundreds, thousands, a million

hundert and tausend usually come without “ein” (einhundert is also right). Everything below a million is one word: zweitausend, hunderttausend. A million is eine Million, a billion eine Milliarde. German writes 1.000 and 2,5.

German numbers in real sentences

Age: Ich bin dreißig = I am thirty.

Questions about German numbers

How do you count to 20 in German?

null, eins, zwei, drei, vier, fünf, sechs, sieben, acht, neun, zehn, elf, zwölf, dreizehn, vierzehn, fünfzehn, sechzehn, siebzehn, achtzehn, neunzehn, zwanzig.

How do you say 21 in German?

einundzwanzig: one (ein) + and (und) + twenty (zwanzig), written as one word. Every number from 21 to 99 follows this order.

Why does German say the unit first?

It is the old Germanic order, still used in Dutch: einundzwanzig = one-and-twenty. English had it too, as in “four-and-twenty blackbirds”.

How do you spell 30 in German?

dreißig, with ß and -ßig instead of -zig. Switzerland writes it dreissig.

Is 100 hundert or einhundert?

Both are right. hundert is more common in speech; einhundert is used where it must be clear, for example on forms and in long numbers.
