# Essential Guide to Numbers in Spanish: Pronunciation Tips and Tricks

[Andrea Rey](https://blog.soyguiri.com/author/andrea-rey)  January 28 2025

Learning **numbers in Spanish** 🔢 is an essential step when starting with a new language. Numbers are part of everyday communication 🗣️, whether you’re at home 🏠, shopping 🛍️ or dining out 🍽️. In this guide, we’ll cover how to say **numbers in Spanish** from 1 to 💯 and provide tips for pronouncing larger numbers like 1.000.

![numbers in spanish](https://blog.soyguiri.com/hs-fs/hubfs/1%20copia.jpg?width=1200&height=627&name=1%20copia.jpg)

### Numbers from 0 to 10 in Spanish

Let’s start with the basics. These are the first ten numbers in Spanish, which you’ll use frequently in daily conversations:

0\. Cero

👂 Cero

0:02

 

1\. Uno

👂 Uno

0:01

 

2\. Dos

👂 Dos

0:01

3\. Tres

👂Tres

0:02

4\. Cuatro

👂 Cuatro

0:02

5\. Cinco

👂 Cinco

0:02

6\. Seis

👂 Seis

0:02

7\. Siete

👂 Siete

0:03

8\. Ocho

👂 Ocho

0:02

9\. Nueve

👂 Nueve

0:02

10\. Diez

👂Diez

0:02

These numbers are fundamental in situations like counting objects or telling your age.

### Numbers from 11 to 20 in Spanish

The numbers from 11 to 20 in Spanish are slightly different, but easy to remember:

11\. Once

👂 Once

0:02

12\. Doce

👂 Doce

0:02

13\. Trece

👂 Trece

0:02

14\. Catorce

👂 Catorce

0:02

15\. Quince

👂 Quince

0:02

16\. Dieciséis

👂 Dieciséis

0:02

17\. Diecisiete

👂 Diecisiete

0:02

18\. Dieciocho

👂 Dieciocho

0:02

19\. Diecinueve

👂 Diecinueve

0:03

20\. Veinte

👂 Veinte

0:02

👀 Notice how numbers 16 to 19 start with “dieci-” (from “diez,” meaning ten), followed by the unit. For example, 16 is **“dieciséis”** (literally “ten and six”).

### Numbers from 21 to 30 in Spanish

The numbers from 21 to 29 follow a similar structure. They start with “veinti-” plus the unit:

1. Veintiuno
2. Veintidós
3. Veintitrés
4. Veinticuatro
5. Veinticinco
6. Veintiséis
7. Veintisiete
8. Veintiocho
9. Veintinueve
10. Treinta

👂 Treinta

0:02

 

👀 Note that in Spanish, there’s no “and” between tens and units like in English. So, "twenty-one" becomes **"veintiuno"** in Spanish.

### Numbers from 31 to 99 in Spanish

From 31 onwards, numbers are created by combining the tens and the units, including "y" (and). Here’s how it works:

1. Treinta y uno
2. Treinta y dos
3. Treinta y tres
4. Treinta y cuatro
5. Treinta y cinco
   
   \------------

  40. Cuarenta

👂 Cuarenta

0:02

 

50\. Cincuenta

👂 Cincuenta

0:02

 

  60. Sesenta

👂 Sesenta

0:02

 

  70. Setenta

👂 Setenta

0:02

 

  80. Ochenta

👂 Ochenta

0:02

 

  90. Noventa

👂 Noventa

0:02

 

For example, **43** is “cuarenta y tres” (forty-three), with “y” (meaning "and") connecting tens and units.

### How to Say 100 in Spanish

When you reach **100**, use "cien". However, for numbers above 100, “ciento” is used:

100\. Cien

👂 Cien

0:02

 

101\. Ciento uno

102\. Ciento dos

199\. Ciento noventa y nueve

Then, we go with the hundreds. Some of them are ❗ irregulars:

200\. Doscientos

👂 Doscientos

0:02

 

300\. Trescientos

👂 Trescientos

0:02

 

400\. Cuatrocientos

👂 Cuatrocientos

0:02

 

\*500. Quinientos

👂 Quinientos

0:02

 

600\. Seiscientos

👂 Seiscientos

0:02

 

\*700. Setecientos

👂 Setecientos

0:02

 

800\. Ochocientos

👂 Ochocientos

0:02

 

\*900. Novecientos

👂 Novecientos

0:02

 

### How to Say 1,000 in Spanish

Larger numbers like **1,000** are straight forward as well. “1.000” in Spanish is simply **“mil”** and there’s no comma used:

1000\. Mil

👂 Mil

0:02

2000\. Dos mil  
3000\. Tres mil  
10000\. Diez mil  
100000\. Cien mil

In Spanish, commas aren’t used to separate thousands, so **1000** is written as “mil” without punctuation.

### Pronunciation Tips for Spanish Numbers

Here are some pronunciation tips for **numbers in Spanish**:

**👉 Vowels:** Spanish vowels are clear and consistent. For example, “e” sounds like the “e” in “bed,” and “i” is like the “ee” in “see.”

**👉 Consonants:**Certain consonants differ slightly from English. For instance, the "c" before "e" or "i" is pronounced as an “s” or "th" (in northern Spain), like in “ciento”.
