Cardinal numerals
The cardinal numerals in the Macedonian language are:
| Symbol | Cardinal numeral
(masc.) | Cardinal numeral
(fem.) | Cardinal numeral
(neu.) |
|---|
| 0 | нула (nula) | нула | нула |
| 1 | еден (eden) | една (edna) | едно (edno) |
| 2 | два (dva) | две (dve) | две (dve) |
| 3 | три (tri) | три | три |
| 4 | четири (četiri) | четири | четири |
| 5 | пет (pet) | пет | пет |
| 6 | шест (šest) | шест | шест |
| 7 | седум (sedum) | седум | седум |
| 8 | осум (osum) | осум | осум |
| 9 | девет (devet) | девет | девет |
| 10 | десет (deset) | десет | десет |
The numerals from 10 - 20 are formed by adding the suffix -наесет (-naeset) to the basic numeral. The suffix -naeset comes from the Old Macedonian suffix -на десет (-na deset).

| 11 | единаесет (edinaeset) | единаесет | единаесет |
| 12 | дванаесет (dvanaeset) | дванаесет | дванаесет |
| 13 | тринаесет (trinaeset) | тринаесет | тринаесет |
| 14 | четиринаесет (četirinaeset) | четиринаесет | четиринаесет |
| 15 | петнаесет (petnaeset) | петнаесет | петнаесет |
| 16 | шестнаесет (šestnaeset) | шестнаесет | шестнаесет |
| 17 | седумнаесет (sedumnaeset) | седумнаесет | седумнаесет |
| 18 | осумнаесет (osumnaeset) | осумнаесет | осумнаесет |
| 19 | деветнаесет (devetnaeset) | деветнаесет | деветнаесет |
The numerals 20, 30, 40 and 60 are formed by adding the suffix -есет (-eset, from the Old Macedonian -десет/ -deset). The numerals 50, 70, 80 and 90 are formed by adding the old suffix -десет (-deset). Notice that when we form the number 60, we do not pronounce or write the last two letters of the basic number, шест (šest) > шеесет (šeeset). The same rule goes for the number 50, in other words, we do not pronounce or write the last letter of the basic number. These two rules are used for better and easier pronunciation.

Example
- 12 332 789 : дванаесет милиони триста триесет и две илјади седумстотини осумдесет и девет. (dvanaeset milioni trista trieset i dve iljadi sedumstotini osumdeset i devet)
The system of Hebrew numerals is a quasi-decimal alphabetic numeral system using the letters of the Hebrew alphabet.
The system was adapted from that of the Greek numerals in the late 2nd century BCE.
A number is a mathematical object used to count, measure, and label. The original examples are the natural numbers 1, 2, 3, 4, and so forth. A notational symbol that represents a number is called a numeral. In addition to their use in counting and measuring, numerals are often used for labels, for ordering, and for codes. In common usage, number may refer to a symbol, a word, or a mathematical abstraction.
The system of Japanese numerals is the system of number names used in the Japanese language. The Japanese numerals in writing are entirely based on the Chinese numerals and the grouping of large numbers follow the Chinese tradition of grouping by 10,000. Two sets of pronunciations for the numerals exist in Japanese: one is based on Sino-Japanese (on'yomi) readings of the Chinese characters and the other is based on the Japanese yamato kotoba.
The plural, in many languages, is one of the values of the grammatical category of number. Plural of nouns typically denote a quantity other than the default quantity represented by a noun, which is generally one. Most commonly, therefore, plurals are used to denote two or more of something, although they may also denote more than fractional, zero or negative amounts. An example of a plural is the English word cats, which corresponds to the singular cat.
English number words include numerals and various words derived from them, as well as a large number of words borrowed from other languages.
In written languages, an ordinal indicator is a character, or group of characters, following a numeral denoting that it is an ordinal number, rather than a cardinal number.
Nominal numbers or categorical numbers are numeric codes, meaning numerals used for labelling or identification only. The values of the numerals are irrelevant, and they do not indicate quantity, rank, or any other measurement.
Swedish is descended from Old Norse. Compared to its progenitor, Swedish grammar is much less characterized by inflection. Modern Swedish has two genders and no longer conjugates verbs based on person or number. Its nouns have lost the morphological distinction between nominative and accusative cases that denoted grammatical subject and object in Old Norse in favor of marking by word order. Swedish uses some inflection with nouns, adjectives, and verbs. It is generally a subject–verb–object (SVO) language with V2 word order.
Numeral or number prefixes are prefixes derived from numerals or occasionally other numbers. In English and other European languages, they are used to coin numerous series of words, such as unicycle – bicycle – tricycle, dyad – triad – decade, biped – quadruped, September – October – November – December, decimal – hexadecimal, sexagenarian – octogenarian, centipede – millipede, etc. There are two principal systems, taken from Latin and Greek, each with several subsystems; in addition, Sanskrit occupies a marginal position.
There is also an international set of metric prefixes, which are used in the metric system, and which for the most part are either distorted from the forms below or not based on actual number words.
Bulgarian grammar is the grammar of the Bulgarian language. Bulgarian is a South Slavic language that evolved from Old Church Slavonic—the written norm for the Slavic languages in the Middle Ages which derived from Proto-Slavic.
Bulgarian is also a part of the Balkan sprachbund, which also includes Greek, Macedonian, Romanian, Albanian and the Torlakian dialect of Serbian. It shares with them several grammatical innovations that set it apart from most other Slavic languages, even other South Slavic languages. Among these are a sharp reduction in noun inflections—Bulgarian has lost the noun cases but has developed a definite article, which is suffixed at the end of words. In its verbal system, Bulgarian is set apart from most Slavic languages by the loss of the infinitive, the preservation of most of the complexities of the older conjugation system and the development of a complex evidential system to distinguish between witnessed and several kinds of non-witnessed information.
The numerals and derived numbers of the Proto-Indo-European language (PIE) have been reconstructed by modern linguists based on similarities found across all Indo-European languages. The following article lists and discusses their hypothesized forms.
The Romanian numbers are the system of number names used in Romanian to express counts, quantities, ranks in ordered sets, fractions, multiplication, and other information related to numbers.
In linguistics, ordinal numbers are words representing position or rank in a sequential order; the order may be of size, importance, chronology, and so on. They differ from cardinal numerals, which represent quantity and other types of numerals. In traditional grammar, all numerals, including ordinal numerals, are grouped into a separate part of speech ; however, in modern interpretations of English grammar, ordinal numerals are usually conflated with adjectives.
Burmese numerals are a set of numerals traditionally used in the Burmese language, although Arabic numerals are also used. Burmese numerals follow the Hindu-Arabic numeral system commonly used in the rest of the world.
In Russian grammar, the system of declension is elaborate and complex. Nouns, pronouns, adjectives, demonstratives, most numerals and other particles are declined for two grammatical numbers and six grammatical cases ; some of these parts of speech in the singular are also declined by three grammatical genders. This gives many spelling combinations for most of the words, which is needed for grammatical agreement within and (often) outside the proposition. Also, there are several paradigms for each declension with numerous irregular forms.
The Georgian numerals are the system of number names used in Georgian, a language spoken in the country of Georgia. The Georgian numerals from 30 to 99 are constructed using a base-20 system, similar to the scheme used in Basque, French for numbers 80 through 99, or the notion of the score in English.
The names for numerals in the Slovene language are formed in a similar way to that found in other Slavic languages. An exception is the formation of numerals from 21 to 99, in which the unit is placed in front of the decade ("four-and-twenty"), as in German. Many numerals alter their form according to grammatical case, and those from 1 to 4 also according to gender.
In linguistics, more precisely in traditional grammar, a distributive number is a word that answers "how many times each?" or "how many at a time?", such as singly or doubly. They are contrasted with multipliers. In English, this part of speech is rarely used and much less recognized than cardinal numbers and ordinal numbers, but it is clearly distinguished and commonly used in Latin and several Romance languages, such as Romanian.
The Hokkien language has two regularly used sets of numerals, a colloquial or native Hokkien system and literary system. Literary and colloquial systems are not totally mutually independent; they are sometimes mixed used.
