Combining Numbers
To form numbers between 20 and 99, you combine the tens number with the units number. For example:
- 21: واحد وعشرون (waahid wa 'ishroon)
- 53: ثلاثة وخمسون (thalaatha wa khamsoon)
- 87: سبعة وثمانون (sab'a wa thamanon)
You can see that "wa" (and) is used to connect the tens and units numbers.
Note:
- The number "two" (اثنان) takes a special form when used in combination with "ten" or "eleven" as seen in twelve (اثنا عشر)
- The number "one" (واحد) changes form when used with "ten" and becomes "أحد" (ahad).
- For numbers above one hundred, you use the word "مئتان" (mi'taan) for two hundred, "ثلاثمائة" (thalath ma'a) for three hundred, and so on.
