Numbers 1–100 — key patterns — Learn these blocks: 1–15 are unique words. 16–19 merge as one word: dieciséis, diecisiete, dieciocho, diecinueve. 20–29 also merge: veintiuno, veintidós… From 30 onwards: treinta y uno, cuarenta y dos — always with y (and).

🔧

Uno and agreement — Uno becomes un before a masculine noun (un libro) and una before feminine (una mesa). In compound numbers: veintiún libros, veintiuna mesas. Cien (100 exactly) vs. ciento + number for anything above: ciento uno, ciento cincuenta.
