Learning to count is typically one of the first things you learn when you start to pick up any new language, including Spanish . Numbers are not only a big part of life, they are also necessary if you want to get around in a Spanish-speaking area. For the most part, counting in Spanish is pretty formulaic. Once you've memorized a few basic numbers, you should have no trouble pronouncing fairly large numbers correctly.

To count in Spanish, first master the Spanish words for 0 through 10, since they form the basis of many larger numbers. Then, learn the numbers 11 through 19, which are either derived from their single digit counterparts, or a combination of the word for 10 plus their single digit counterparts. For example, you can learn that 2 in Spanish is “dos” and 12 in Spanish is “doce,” which is a derivation of “dos.” You can also figure out that 17 in Spanish, which is “diecisiete,” is a combination of the Spanish words for 10, “diez,” and 7, “siete.” To learn how to count to 100 in Spanish, read on!
