Knowing how to count in English is as important as speaking it. In any tourist country, all salespeople, taxi drivers, and hotel staff have a count of up to 20. Are you any worse? In general, you understand what's what. To learn how to count to a million in English, you need to learn only 31 words. But everything is in order. In this article we will learn how to count to 20.

In Russian, to learn numbers, you need to know over 100 words. In English invoice the same rules apply, but it is worth mentioning a couple important points, which will greatly facilitate the process of learning numbers and numbers:

• In English, unlike Russian, numbers are not declined according to gender. If we have “two thousand”, but “two million”, then here it is the same as “two thousand”, as “two million”
• They do not decline according to cases, that is, the endings do not change. Instead of “a thousand - thousand-thousand-thousand...”, for everything the simple word “thousand”
• Also, instead of "1 million - 2 million - 5 million" it all comes down to using one word "million" and no additional endings
• There are no personal names for hundreds. Instead of “two hundred” there will be “two hundred”, instead of “six hundred” the Englishman will say “six hundred”, etc.
• Well, fifthly, there are much fewer exceptions in the English account

Well, now let’s move from theory directly to practice: Numbers from one to ten are the basis of the basics!

Numerous numbers are based on basic numbers- from 1 to 9, you can also include 0 and 10 here. You will just have to memorize these numbers:

Number	English	Translation	English transcription
	One	One		[one]
	Two	Two		[that]
	Three	Three	[θri:]	[sry]
	Four	Four		[fo]
	Five	Five		[five]
	Six	Six		[syks]
	Seven	Seven		[sevn]
	Eight	Eight		[eight]
	Nine	Nine		[nine]
	Ten	Ten		[ten]

Further, the next numbers 11 and 12 are those few exceptions from the top 20. You will have to remember them too. Then everything is much simpler. From the 13th to the 19th the numbers are formed in the same way “digit (3 to 9) + teen”. For example, six + teen = sixteen. Similar to thirteen, fifteen in Russian. This is -eleven and is -teen. The number is written together and read with the emphasis on the last syllable.

Number	English	Translation	English transcription	Transcription in Russian letters
	Ten	Ten		[ten]
	Eleven	Eleven		[ilevn]
	Twelve	Twelve		[tuelv]
	Thirteen	Thirteen	[‘θə:tin]	[shotin]
	Fourteen	Fourteen	[‘fo:tin]	[photin]
	Fifteen	Fifteen	[‘fi:ftin]	[fiftin]
	Sixteen	Sixteen	[‘sikstin]	[sykstin]
	Seventeen	Seventeen	[‘sevntin]	[sevntin]
	Eighteen	Eighteen	[‘eitin]	[atein]
	Nineteen	Nineteen	[‘naintin]	[nightteen]
	Twenty	Twenty	['twenti]	[twenty]

There are minor changes here too. In pronunciation they are not noticeable, but in writing it is worth paying attention to the radical changes:

• 13: The spelling of "three" is modified to "thir"
• 15: in the second syllable "five" the v changes to f and the letter "e" disappears
• 18: when adding the suffix “teen” to “eight”, the letter t that appears is not duplicated, but replaced with a single letter

In fact, the ending “teen” is a full-fledged word meaning the age from 13 to 19 years.

It should be taken into account that Russian pronunciation(transcription) - this is only an approximate sound; the specific sound of English numbers cannot be 100% conveyed.

How to teach a child to count in English?

Once you start teaching your children English, it also needs to be taught numeracy. Be sure to do this through play to instill in him a love and desire to learn the language. Here are some ways to teach your child to count in English:

• Buy or download number cards from the Internet. It is better if on each of them it is written in letters and with pronunciation. Lay out the pictures on the floor. Say the number in English, and let the child bring you the card you need or point to it
• The previous game, only the adult already names the number in his native language, and the child takes a card with a number and calls it in a foreign language
• Take the ball. Stand opposite, and throwing the ball into the child’s hands, say the number in a foreign language, and the child, returning the toy to you, says it in his native language.
• Game "Who has more". Turn the cards over with the numbers down, and draw out one picture at a time with your baby. Say the number in English. Whoever has more gets both cards. And so on until the end. The one with the highest amount wins
• Ask your child to draw numbers, give them human features - eyes, hands, and their name will be the name of the number
• Use engaging rhymes that children can easily remember.
• Another option is the game “Crocodile”, but instead of words, the child must turn into a number
• You can also ask your child to draw a number that you will voice in the air.

The first question that worries parents is: “Isn’t it difficult for children to remember and reproduce numbers in English?” We answer: “On the contrary! Not only is it not difficult, but it’s also pleasant.” You just need to get to know them in a playful, unobtrusive way, especially if the baby is a preschooler.

English numbers and numbers: what do we study and how?

The first thing to start with is the usual numbers from 0 to 9. Below we provide the data necessary for parents: numbers, their “names” and transcription.

0	Zero (oh)	["ziərəu] ([əu])	Zero
1	One		One
2	Two		Two
3	Three	[θriː]	Three
4	Four		Four
5	Five		Five
6	Six		Six
7	Seven	[‘sev(ə)n]	Seven
8	Eight		Eight
9	Nine		Nine
10	Ten		Ten

There are two opinions regarding transcription:

• Children should be taught foreign phonetics right away, that is, use classical transcription.
• You can use a Russified version of pronunciation, for example, 4 - fo, 1 - van or uan.

In our opinion, it is better to resort to the first method in order to immediately place and fix the sounds in their correct form. Unfamiliar cases, for example, interdental [θ] can be played out using the articulation exercise “tongue in a window” (the tip of the tongue looks out of the window formed by the teeth, as if looking out into the street, while the child is asked to blow on the tip of the tongue and let the air out). The result will be the desired sound.

And, having become familiar with the names of numbers, the child will be able to add more complex “names” of numbers from them.

A little about the teaching methodology

First of all, for a preschool child, the game and everything connected with it are of particular interest. Therefore, when learning numbers in English, it is important to use original videos, bright pictures, songs, poems, counting rhymes and other children's interesting things.

Let the learning process not be boring school lessons. Communicate with the child, speak emotionally (of course, in a positive way), use different types of activities, alternate them often enough so that the baby does not have time to get tired. Pay attention to his interest, stimulate it. And under no circumstances force him, especially for preschoolers.

Games, exercises and other “useful things” for children

For a unique workout with the kids, you can use the following ideas.

In a word, there are no limits to imagination. Add some variety to your dull everyday life, go back to your childhood and play with your child. It will be both fun and useful for both! Good luck to you and your children! And finally, a small task:

Baby! Don't be afraid to learn something new! If you know numbers in Russian, then you will definitely know how they are written and pronounced in English. In that distant country of England, numbers are written and pronounced a little differently, they are not at all complicated. Now let's look a little at the history of numbers.

A short course on the history of numbers

There used to be primitive people, they were exploring this world, just like you are now. And they noticed that they had five fingers on each hand. Look at your hand now. Do you see? You have five fingers. And the second hand has five fingers. And if you add them up, it turns out that you have ten fingers on both hands. People realized that numbers could be written down somehow, for example on stones, because there were no pens and pencils then.

You may ask, why should I write it down? Well, you can, for example, write down a number on paper and remember that they bought you two ice creams yesterday and now you already need three ice creams. Now we will stop at the history course and move straight to the numbers.
