Italian numbers: Counting from 0 to 1000 | Italian Easy Way PDF Download

Firstly, there’s the number zero, which is “zero”. And then, here are the numbers 1 to 12 in Italian with the pronunciation in brackets.

1 — uno (oo-noh)

2 — due (doo-eh)

3 — tre (treh)

4 — quattro (kwah-troh)

5 — cinque (chin-kweh)

6 — sei (say)

7 — sette (seh-teh)

8 — otto (oh-toh)

9 — nove (noh-veh)

10 — dieci (dee-eh-cheh)

11 — undici (oon-dee-chee)

12 — dodici (doh-dee-chee)

You can use these numbers with this phrase:

Sono le ___

It is ___ o’clock

sono le tre — it’s 3 o’clock

sono le cinque — it’s 5 o’clock

sono le undici — it’s 11 o’clock

You can get to grips with the numbers one to twelve by repeating them to yourself over and over. The more you count to yourself out loud, the more familiar you’ll become.

Now let’s move onto bigger numbers. Here are the numbers 13 to 20 in Italian:

13 — tredici

14 — quattordici

15 — quindici

16 — sedici

17 — diciassette

18 — diciotto

19 — diciannove

20 — venti

21–70

The first twenty numbers are the trickiest to learn, I think, because once you know one to nine, they are simply repeated over and over for most of the tens. Here are the numbers 21 to 70 in Italian:

21 — 30

21 — ventuno

22 — ventidue

23 — ventitré

24 — ventiquattro

25 — venticinque

26 — ventisei

27 — ventisette

28 — ventotto

29 — ventinove

30 — trenta

31 — 40

31 — trentuno

32 — trentadue

33 — trentatré

34 — trentaquattro

35 — trentacinque

36 — trentasei

37 — trentasette

38 — trentotto

39 — trentanove

40 — quaranta

41 — 50

41 — quarantuno

42 — quarantadue

43 — quarantatré

44 — quarantaquattro

45 — quarantacinque

46 — quarantasei

47 — quarantasette

48 — quarantotto

49 — quarantanove

50 — cinquanta

51 — 60

51 — cinquantuno

52 — cinquantadue

53 — cinquantatré

54 — cinquantaquattro

55 — cinquantacinque

56 — cinquantasei

57 — cinquantasette

58 — cinquantotto

59 — cinquantanove

60 — sessanta

61 — 70

61 — sessantuno

62 — sessantadue

63 — sessantatré

64 — sessantaquattro

65 — sessantacinque

66 — sessantasei

67 — sessantasette

68 — sessantotto

69 — sessantanove

70 — settanta

You might notice that the numbers uno, due, tre, quattro, cinque, sei, sette, otto and nove are repeated over and over. The only thing that changes are the tens. So, all you have to learn is venti, trenta, quaranta, cinquanta and sessanta.

70, 80 & 90

We’ve already had the word for “seventy”, which was “settanta”. So, you just start again with uno, due, tre…

71 — 80

71 — settantuno

72 — settantadue

73 — settantatré

74 — settantaquattro

75 — settantacinque

76 — settantasei

77 — settantasette

78 — settantotto

79 — settantanove

80 — ottanta

81 — 90

81 — ottantuno

82 — ottantadue

83 — ottantatré

84 — ottantaquattro

85 — ottantacinque

86 — ottantasei

87 — ottantasette

88 — ottantotto

89 — ottantanove

90 — novanta

91 — 100

91 — novantuno

92 — novantadue

93 — novantatré

94 — novantaquattro

95 — novantacinque

96 — novantasei

97 — novantasette

98 — novantotto

99 — novantanove

100 — cento

The word for 100 is “cento”, and all you have to do is put all the numbers we’ve learnt so far after it:

The 100s

101 — 110

101 — centouno

102 — centodue

103 — centotré

104 — centroquattro

105 — centrocinque

106 — centosei

107 — centosette

108 — centootto

109 — centonove

110 — centodieci

And then 200 is “duecento”:

200 — 210

200 — duecento

201 — duecentouno

202 — duecentodue

203 — duecentotré

204 — duecentoquattro

205 — duecentocinque

206 — duecentosei

207 — duecentosette

208 — duecentootto

209 — duecentonove

210 — duecentodieci

The words for the rest of the hundreds are quite easy; you just put the numbers tre, quattro, cinque etc in front of “cento”.

300 — 1000

300 — trecento

301 — trecentouno

302 — trecentodue

303 — trecentotré

400 — quattrocento

500 — cinquecento

600 — seicento

700 — settecento

800 — ottocento

900 — novecento

1000 — mille
