NUMERALS

Cardinal Numbers (1-10):

  • εἱς, μία, ἓν = One

  • δύο = Two

  • τρεῖς, τρία = Three

  • τέσσαρες, τέσσαρα = Four

  • πέντε = Five

  • ἓξ = Six

  • ἑπτά = Seven

  • ὁκτώ = Eight

  • ἐννέα = Nine

  • δέκα = Ten

Numbers 1-4 change their endings depending on their role in the sentence, the rest are indeclinable.

Here they are below:

One / εἷς (3-1-3 declension):

* Note: εἷς (one) is similar to εἰς (into); ἓν (one) is similar to ἐν (in) —> Only the breathing distinguishes between them.

Two / δύο:

Three / τρεῖς (3 - 3 declension):

Four / τέσσαρες (3 - 3 declension):

Ordinal Numbers (1st-10th):

  • πρῶτος, -η, -ον = First

  • δεύτερος, -α, -ον = Second

  • τρίτος, -η, -ον = Third

  • τέταρτος, -η, -ον = Fourth

  • πέμπτος, -η, -ον = Fifth

  • ἓκτος, -η, -ον = Sixth

  • ἓβδομος, -η, -ον = Seventh

  • ὂγδοος, -η, -ον = Eighth

  • ἒνατος, -η, -ον = Ninth

  • δέκατος, -η, -ον = Tenth

They decline like 2-1-2 adjectives (like σοφός), with δεύτερος like φίλιος with the alpha in the feminine.

Ordinal numbers work like any adjective - sandwiched in an article or with a repeated article as the noun it agrees with.
