Appendix:English numerals

This appendix discusses numbers or numerals in English generally. "Numerals" is also a grammatical part of speech, but only applies to certain types of numbers. (See .)

Naming rules (short scale)
English generally uses a decimal counting system for natural numbers. The names of the cardinal and ordinal numbers can be constructed from the below tables and a set of combining rules.

Each of the numbers specifically listed has a literal name that can be used on its own.

 * To name numbers 21 through 99 that are not multiples of 10, a multiple of ten is followed by a single digit number 1-9, and the value is the sum. For example, "42" is "forty-two", which places a numeral "4" before a numeral "2" to indicate that the 4 represents "forty", or 4 times 10. "Zero" never combines with other numbers in the naming system; it is only pronounced in the name for 0.

 * To name numbers 101 through 999 that are not multiples of 100, the name of a digit 1-9 is followed by "hundred" (the individual values are multiplied together) to express the first digit, and the rules for smaller numbers are used for the remainder (the values of the hundreds part and the remainder are summed). For example, "642" is "six hundred and forty two" and "919" is "nine hundred and nineteen".

 * For larger numbers, each additional numeral at the beginning of the string generally represents another power of ten. Every additional (up to) three digits are grouped using the rules for numbers 1-999, then paired with a multiplier.
 * So with the multiplier "thousand" for example: 2,001 is "two thousand one" and 1,234 is "one thousand two hundred and thirty four".
 * One informal variant omits the use of the word thousand for example "fifteen hundred" instead of "one thousand five hundred". This variant tends to be used only in cases where it results in shorter pronunciation.
 * When writing in numerals, to aid comprehension these groups of three digits are typically separated—for example, with a comma in countries where the decimal mark is the period. (To be manipulated by machine, these separators are usually omitted. Lists/columns and tables of numbers may use spatial alignment in addition to or instead of commas.)
 * Similarly, when writing numbers with words, these groups are written using the rules for 1-999 followed by the multiplier. (Any group that is "000" is neither written in words nor pronounced.) Due to the impractical length, it is uncommon to find numbers with more than a few non-zero digits in words; more often they are simply written using Arabic numerals. Examples:
 * 375,000 has each numeral at the place in the string of numerals that represents its power of ten. Written fully in words ("three-hundred and seventy-five thousand"), the group "three-hundred and seventy-five" modifies the word "thousand".
 * Compare 3,750, for which each word representing a numeral is immediately modified by a word representing its power of ten: "three-thousand", "seven-hundred", "and" "fifty".
 * 954,020,672: "nine hundred and fifty four million twenty thousand six hundred and seventy two" (uncommonly seen due to length)
 * 20,000,000: "twenty million" (commonly seen due to brevity)

Ordinal numbers
When constructing names for ordinal numbers, the ordinal variant given in the charts below is only used for the final word. For example:
 * first
 * second
 * third
 * fourth
 * twentieth
 * twenty-first (not twentieth first)

Ordinal numbers can also be written with Arabic numerals, in which case the last two letters of what would be the final word in the written-out form are appended to the numerals. For example:

 * 1st
 * 2nd
 * 3rd
 * 4th
 * 20th
 * 21st

Systematic variations
The words for numbers less than one hundred are varied as follows: Those not expressible by a single word can when written be joined by a hyphen, as in "six hundred forty-two". In British English, the word "and" is typically inserted before them. (Some speakers of North American English also insert "and", especially when the number is below 20.) Examples:
 * six hundred and two (instead of "six hundred two")
 * six hundred and forty-two
 * two thousand and one
 * one thousand two hundred and thirty-four
 * one million and one
 * six hundred and twenty-two million one thousand and five

As shown on the charts below, there are two systems for the names of multipliers, known as the "long system" and "short system", though the short system is generally now preferred in English, to avoid confusion.

In countries where the comma or middle dot is used as the decimal mark, spaces or periods are used for thousands separators. Some style guides prefer no digits separator for four-digit numbers (1000-9999).

In less formal speech, the names for the numbers 11-99 (except powers of ten) can be combined with "hundred" as an alternative to a longer systematic name using both "thousand" and "hundred". For example "eleven hundred" can replace "one thousand one hundred" but "twenty hundred and two" never replaces "two thousand and two" except poetically.

For large round numbers, familiar multipliers are sometimes repeated instead of using less familiar multipliers. For example, "one billion billion" instead of "one quintillion".

In British English, the phrases "thousand million", "thousand billion", and "thousand trillion" are sometimes used in place of "billion", "trillion", and "quadrillion", respectively.

The determiners a or the can grammatically substitute for "one", as in "a hundred" or "the first thousand"; and "a couple" can be used to mean two (though to some speakers "a couple" means "a few" which could perhaps range from two to five or higher).

The names of non-counting numbers — like in a code or a sequence or a naming scheme as for years or addresses — typically use a form of the "hundreds replace thousands" variation that also drops the "hundreds". Years and addresses are never written with commas as digit separators. For example, the year 1,984 is pronounced "nineteen eighty four"; referring to that year with the systematic reading "nineteen hundred and eighty four" sounds old-fashioned. Sequence numbers with zero digits have additional variations. More commonly than not, a zero in only the tens place is read as "oh" (as in the letter o), like "nineteen oh four". A zero in the hundreds place triggers use of the systematic name or the "hundreds replacement" variant. Examples:
 * 2,001: "two thousand and one" or rarely "twenty oh one"
 * 2,015: "two thousand and fifteen" or very commonly "twenty fifteen"

One complete variation for such non-counting numbers is to read individual digits. Informally, "oh" can once again substitute for zero in this scheme. For example, "1024" could be read "one zero two four" or "one oh two four".

Common fractions
Common fractions are indicated by using the cardinal form for the numerator and the ordinal form for the denominator, with a few exceptions for small numbers. Fractions are typically but not always normalized to proper fractions or integers with proper fraction components.

GPO manual states: "Print a hyphen between the elements of a fraction, but omit it between the numerator and the denominator when the hyphen appears in either or in both.
 * one-thousandth
 * two-thirds
 * two one-thousandths
 * twenty-three thirtieths
 * twenty-one thirty-seconds
 * three-fourths of an inch"

Decimal fractions
Decimal fractions are typically written as Hindu-Arabic numerals (like 0.125). When written as words, the symbols are generally translated one at a time, for example "zero point one two five". Zero or nought can also be written as oh, but this may be considered casual and is more common when being spoken.

Short and long scale
For higher multiplying terms, the ordinal suffix is always "th".

South Asian numbering system
In South Asian varieties of English, the traditional South Asian numbering system is commonly used instead of or alongside the short and long scale. This groups higher digits in pairs instead of triplets.

General rules for very large numbers (short and long scale)
Depending on whether you are using the old European system of powers of a million, or the more current system of powers of a thousand, then the name of a number can be created by extracting the name of the power from this table and then adding -illion to the end. This method should be treated with caution, and it is common to find slight spelling variations, normally to aid with the pronunciation of the resulting word. In most situations it is preferable to write numbers such as these using standard form instead of words.

For an example of how this might work consider $$10^{762}$$. This can be written as $$1000^{254}$$ using the modern system. This is then interpreted as ducenti-quinquaginta-quattor-illion using the above table. The hyphens are normally removed leaving one ducentiquinquagintaquattorillion. In the older system it would be written as $$1000000^{127}$$ and interpreted as one centivigintiseptillion, noting that the ‘e’ from ‘septe’ has been elided.

Historical numerals

Parts of speech

 * Cardinal numbers act as the part of speech known as "numerals". For example, in "two apples", "two" is a quantitative determiner (says how many there are) for the plural noun "apples".
 * Ordinal numbers act as adjectives. For example, "the second apple" specifies a property of a specific apple, which identifies its position or rank.
 * Fractional units act as nouns. For example, in "seven eighths", "seven" is a numeral that quantifies "eighths", a plural noun. Overall, this is a noun phrase. It can occur in predeterminer position ("she used only seven eighths the amount of flour called for by the recipe"), or with of in a partitive construction like "seven eighths of the apple".
 * Unlike true numerals, terms like, , and cannot function alone as determiners (*"hundred apples"). However, they can form a determiner when they follow a numeral ("thirty-one million", "two dozen"), or certain other determinatives ("the dozen apples", "several hundred apples"). These terms are most commonly classified as nouns, though some traditional grammars place them among adjectives.

Semantically, all these different parts of speech denote quantity or portion (albeit in different ways) and can be described as "numbers" (or numerals, as a synonym for numbers rather than as a grammatical part of speech).

Talk:banana

Wiki
See the relevant sections in Wikipedia - banana and plantain for more information. The origins of the banana seem uncertain, other than that they appear to have thrived in tropical regions.

Too wiki
Article seems encyclopedic. If someone needs to know who 'discovered' bananas, etc., then they should try wikipedia. --shark 00:29, 28 November 2005 (UTC)
 * Is the banana a herb or fruit??!!
 * It is a tree whose fruit have the same name.

Translations
My parents, both from El Salvador, use the word 'guineo' (gee ne o) for banana. So this is obviously the word I use.

Plátano is fried banana much like the banana chips you can get at any local grocery store. It's a treat, if you will.

I believe use of plátano for banana is not used in Mexico nor any of Central America. I cannot vouch for South American countries nor Spain. However, I am pretty sure that plátano would be the correct term in Spain.

Not sure how to research this to implement the change. Amoeba 17:14, 7 July 2007 (UTC)
 * I wonder if this is plantain rather than banana? SemperBlotto 17:16, 7 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Well, it says 'a type of banana usually cooked before eating' so no. When my mother asks me "quieres un guineo", she's asking me if I want a banana. Straight up, yellow banana (actually, I like mine with a tint of brown)...

 * I don't like plátano, which to us/me, is fried banana.Amoeba 17:22, 7 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Added 'guineo' as synonym because it is a proper translation of the word in many countries.Amoeba 17:29, 7 July 2007 (UTC)

RFV
Two adjective senses, the first most dubious than the second. Can they be attested as adjectives? See WT:English adjectives and. - -sche (discuss) 17:38, 23 September 2012 (UTC)
 * "Banana flavouring" is in common usage, and "banana liqueur" is also in common usage. Relatively huge number of cites available. It should be noted that the def should be broadened to say  "having a flavour derived from, or tasting like, bananas" to account for the fact that artificial flavouring is dominant in many products, and the second should be "having a colour similar to a banana, typically bright greenish yellow"  as bananas come in many shades. A third def should be added "in the fanciful shape of a banana" used in "banana seat" (bicycles) and "banana plug" or "banana connector" (electrical connections).  The colour sample given is, however, not considered "banana" as far as I can tell.  shows the far more typical greenish-yellow found in bananas. See also     Collect (talk) 02:06, 24 September 2012 (UTC)
 * Banana flavouring and banana liqueur seem attributive use of the noun. Your proposed definition seems to be a genuine adjective. — Ungoliant (Falai) 02:15, 24 September 2012 (UTC)
 * We need to see usage that could not be interpreted as attributive use of the noun. Examples are:
 * modification of banana by an adverb like too or very: "I think that handbag is very banana, really too banana for the dress." OR
 * use in a comparison: "This batch of leather came back more banana than the first, which was more lemon." OR
 * use in a sense not assumed by the noun.
 * use after become: "The lemony leather seemed to become banana in front of our eyes."
 * This is what is explained in WT:English adjectives. DCDuring TALK 02:35, 24 September 2012 (UTC)
 * I find it easier to start with the adjective-fitting citations and fit the definition to the citations rather than the other way around. DCDuring TALK 02:41, 24 September 2012 (UTC)
 * The true banana color is from the ripe fruit, and has no green in it at all (people buy fruit slightly under-ripe so it won't turn over-ripe before they eat it). If anything, the color sample needs a little more orange. Chuck Entz (talk) 02:43, 24 September 2012 (UTC)

 * Colors are always tricky. For the "standard" colors, there's little doubt that they are adjectives, and my personal inclination is to consider "noun" uses of those colors to be substantive use of the adjective.  For "modern" colors like banana (or whatever), it becomes trickier because of the duality of the standard colors.  Consider, a "banana shirt" could be a banana-colored shirt or one printed with numerous bananas. In other words, is the color sense of banana fundamentally a noun or an adjective?  If it were a standard color, there would be no question, and I'd even consider moving the color sense to Adjective and removing it from Noun.  --EncycloPetey (talk) 02:50, 24 September 2012 (UTC)
 * Presumably a banana hammock is yellow, since all hammocks are more or less banana shaped? Rich Farmbrough, 22:46, 25 September 2012 (UTC).

 * A banana hammock is a metaphorical hammock for a euphemistic banana, not a hammock that is shaped or colored like a banana. It's still an attributive use of the noun, not an adjective, as you still can't say "this hammock is more banana than that one". —Angr 09:03, 26 September 2012 (UTC)

 * Most banana species are not yellow, and yellow is a prime colour. I understand that a colour may occasionally be given as banana, but so is stone although depending on your location in the world, common stone can be in the yellow, red or blue of the spectrum and I know I often see both beige (yellow) and grey (blue) items called stone colour.  Bananas grow white, pink, red, yellow, blue (i think), green, mixes of those colours, and probably some more.  If a word is a given name for a thing, such as *human*, everything about it can become adjective for the example, the human hand.  Compare a human hand with a chimpanzee hand.  You are obligated to use the word human adjectively to describe the human hand, and the chimp respectively, but I could see that failing to apply to dictionary definition as an adjective for hand.  The mixture and pattern of black and yellow however may be rather unique to the (cavendish?) commonplace banana, but otherwise, if the term hasn't fallen into common usage as lemon exampled above, I don't see why you should need to bother with everything as a colour.  Night could be a colour.  It's just commercialisation.  If that doesn't help just say so.  I like musa.  It is like the little shop of horrors plant some of it and some surviving species are very ancient.  They are from south asia and they smell nice.  And there is your missing adjective.  Bananas have a distinctive and popular smell.  RTG (talk) 03:03, 8 October 2012 (UTC)
 * When something becomes an adjective, it's the quality associated with it in people's minds that counts, not all the exceptions that don't match. After all, there are plenty of banana varieties that are anything but "banana-shaped", and yet we have all kinds of terms containing the word "banana" that derive from that shape. Think of all the colors of roses- just about everything but a true blue- and yet rose is a pink color. There are white lavenders, violets, pinks, etc., even green oranges. The existence of greengages doesn't invalidate the plum color, nor does the yellow key lime invalidate lime green. Talking about real-world examples doesn't say much about the archetypes that are involved in the names of the adjectives- it just wastes time by missing the point. Chuck Entz (talk) 04:39, 8 October 2012 (UTC)
 * To me the colour of banana is not popular as a term and I just thought it could be argued that it shoudn't really matter. They don't have a particular colour after all, and the ones we are used to are not sustainable.  The smell however... surely the smell of the banana is unique.  Oh don't eat green oranges.  They aren't ripe and as I recall it's illegal to harvest them when still green, as they are carcinogenic before ripe, and green oranges are also a sign of a bacterial disease.  There are many dozens of species of orange and they are all orange in colour (Cam sành is not an orange species and, according to wikipedia, tends to be orange within, and sometimes without also).  Even the blood orange is orange, only darker inside.  Rose colour, isn't that just an anglicisation of the french word rosé?  Well if it isn't it must be a remarkable coincidence that the common popular rose is blood red while the rosé is a perfect match for the pale pink colour.  Doesn't the existence of individual names for greenguages and key limes set them apart in that, and for this very reason?  Language evolves and is therefore often more careful and reasonable than we might think.  What colour is a tulip?  Negatory, tulips are no one colour, not even purple, they are any colour you like.  As I recall, natural wild lavender is all one colour, and basically, if banana is not really the term for a colour, but you claim it is, what is that?  Put those straws down man! There is probably a short one!  RTG (talk) 11:54, 8 October 2012 (UTC)
 * Think of it this way, why is it that oranges are orange in English while carrots are not, and yet carrots are native to, or at least prolific since antiquity in, Europe and obviously orange? Occasionally someones hair might be referred to as a carrot top for instance... but orange carrots are a modern thing.  Carrots come in white, blue purple, you name it.  It's our modern industrtial farming methods.  Mono crops until we think that is all there is.  They destroy the environment, but they also destroy what it is to percieve the world as it is too.  Sounds whacked out but it's true.  Any natural object with a name could be an adjective for a colour just because anyone says so, or there could be actual adjectives that fall into true use for a reason.  Language evolves rather than just get placed haberdashedly doesn't it, or every time Barack Obama used a Arabic word  we'd all have to speak Arabic and call it English.  RTG (talk) 11:42, 9 October 2012 (UTC)

 * It looks to me like "Flavoured with bananas." and "Of the colour of bananas." fail RFV as adjectives (though the noun can be used to ascribe those attributes to things). "Curved like a banana, especially of a ball in flight." was added after the RFV and thus is not subject to it, and I don't feel like challenging it. - -sche (discuss) 00:54, 26 October 2012 (UTC)

Offensive
"Banana" is 'cuter' than Uncle Tom and far less visceral than n- lover, but it's not "somewhat less" offensive to the people who deal with it on the receiving end, even if Americans overall think its Asians are doing just fine thankyouverymuch and they should stop whining and sit where they're told.

 * Sounds odd and incorrect to me. I'd guess I haven't seen it done but I'll defer to your opinion. Shouldn't it be said that this is informal or something similar?
 * Aside from that, is there any case where the so-called rule of thumb, about the pronunciation of a word, actually fails? In particular, "Biblical given names" is stated specifically, but isn't this true of names in general? Davilla 16:39, 22 July 2005 (UTC)

 * Paul, I recall being taught to add the apostrophe, yes. --Connel MacKenzie 19:13, 22 July 2005 (UTC)

English personal pronouns on Wikipedia
A more complete table of personal pronouns can be found at pronoun. It would be wise to merge somehow. Perhaps "English personal pronouns" could have its own special page in Wiktionary, since it is more relevant here, and both this page and the Wikipedia could link to it. (Sorry, I'm too new to know if these changes are acceptable, or I'd have already done it myself.) Davilla 17:10, 22 July 2005 (UTC)

Adverb formation
The formation of adverbs from adjectives (happy > happily) is a kind of inflection too. (At least in my opinion it is.) And this one is actually quite a difficult inflection for learners, because not all adverbs take the ly-form. Some are left unchanged, sometimes both forms exist (often with different meanings), sometimes there's no adverb at all. It would be an improvement if all entries for adjectives indicated the respective adverb form(s).

RFC discussion: November 2007–January 2010
Should this be moved to Appendix:English inflection? Rod (A. Smith) 04:14, 15 November 2007 (UTC)

 * Probably. DAVilla 06:30, 18 November 2007 (UTC)

 * 1) moved to Appendix:English parts of speech instead --Volants 15:06, 26 January 2010 (UTC)

Etymology 1
From, from , back-formed from , from (compare 🇨🇬, 🇨🇬), from. Displaced 🇨🇬, from 🇨🇬, also a loanword from the same Latin word. Sense “stupid person” from the animal's reputation for stubbornness, going back to antiquity (compare 🇨🇬).

Etymology 2
Variant of ; used chiefly in North America. Ultimately from, , from , , from , from (compare 🇨🇬 (🇨🇬), 🇨🇬, 🇨🇬), from  (compare 🇨🇬).

Contrary to the widespread belief of this being a euphemism, it arose as a pronunciation spelling (of the older form still used in the UK, Australia, New Zealand, etc.) that shows the assimilation of  before  consonants (especially ), a phenomenon that has been present in nonstandard speech from the  period onwards; this is distinct from the later phenomenon of non-rhoticity as  was lost before it could modify the preceding vowel. Other instances of this phenomenon (some of which retained both spellings with different meanings) include from,  from ,  from ,  from ,  from ; see Category:English terms with assimilation of historic /ɹ/ for a more extensive list.

Usage notes
Its semantic essence is (even of oneself), whereby a chief body part synecdochically represents the whole self, with a connotation emphasizing the person's corporeality over their personhood (from that viewpoint, compare also, , , , or ).
 * When used synecdochically to refer to a (whole) person, it adds a tone of anger or disapproval to the whole sentence:
 * "he has trouble getting his ass up in the morning" is much stronger and more negative than "he has trouble getting up in the morning".
 * The disapproval may not be of the person so referred to:
 * "And who do you think has to clean this mess up? My ass does!" (Does not indicate disapproval of the speaker themselves, but rather of the people who made the mess.)
 * (A hint of jaded self-perception may be perceived: "I realize how they see me!")
 * Such usage is usually considered vulgar and is thus usually confined to casual/informal ; its use in formal contexts is mildly offensive.
 * Its declined forms function pronominally in syntax, which is to say (regarding part of speech), they are pronouns:
 * his ass =, ,
 * her ass =, ,
 * your asses =, ,
 * their asses =, ,
 * your asses =, ,
 * their asses =, ,

From this stem, there are also Latvian reflexes with ak rather than as (e.g.,, ), possibly a result of Proto-Indo-European dialectal variation.

Prepositional phrase

 * 1) Per hundred.

Usage notes

 * Percent/per cent originated as a shortening of the Latin phrase per centum, “per hundred”, and historically the use of the word as a noun (as in “half a percent” or “percents”) was regarded as an error, though such use has now become so common that it is recognized by all other major dictionaries,      and a few treat the word as being only a noun. Of those which recognize non-nounal uses, most label it an adverb     and many also label it an adjective    though it does not meet tests of adjectivity.
