Note: French switches the use of commas and periods. 1,00 would be 1.00 in English. Belgian and
Swiss French use septante, huitante and nonante in place of the standard French words for 70, 80,
and 90. Also, when the numbers 5, 6, 8, and 10 are used before a word beginning with a consonant,
their final consonants are not pronounced.
Ordinal Numbers

fifth cinquième
sixth sixième
seventh septième
eighth huitième
ninth neuvième
tenth dixième
eleventh onzième
twelfth douzième
twentieth vingtième

Note: The majority of numbers become ordinals by adding -ième. But if a number ends in an e, you
must drop it before adding the -ième. After a q, you must add a u before the -ième. And an f becomes
a v before the -ième.
