1 - 100

After 20, it becomes very easy to count. You will notice, it follows the same pattern.

20     vingt                  (twenty)
21     vingt et un        (twenty and one)
22     vingt-deux        (twenty two)
23     vingt-trois        (twenty three)

Can you guess what comes next?

24     vingt-quatre    (twenty four) 
25     vingt-cinq        (twenty five)

Notice vingt et un, there is no hyphen between the numbers vingt and un
But after that, there is always a hyphen up to 30.

30      trente              (thirty)
31      trente et un    (thirty one)
32      trente-deux    (thirty two)
33      trente-trois    (thirty three)

I'm sure, you can do 34 to 39.

40      quarante                (forty)
50      cinquante               (fifty)
60      soixante                 (sixty)
70      soixante-dix           (seventy)
80      quatre-vingts         (eighty)
90      quatre-vingt-dix    (ninety)
100    cent                        (hundred)

Can you say 41, 42, 43 ... 

Be careful:

From 70 to 99, you start using 11, 12, 13 ... instead of 1, 2, 3 ...
71 is soixante et onze    (60 and 11
72 is soixante-douze      (60 - 12)
73 is soixante-treize      (60 - 13)

If you can remember that, you can count up to 100.

Congratulation!

Félicitation!
