Hindi cardinal numbers up to 100 have no specific standardization. Up to 20, the numbers are unique. After that

each tenth number (such as 30, 40 etc) is unique. The rest of the numbers take the form of prefix of incremental

digit and the base of preceding tenth number. However these prefixes and bases vary slightly and random manner.

Although the pattern isn't regular, don't worry too much. They're just slightly different and with some practice you'd

soon get the hang of it. Here are the numbers from 21 to 100. Try to follow them and find any similar pattern.

Once you have got through the numbers 1-100 the rest of the numbers are regular. For example if we need seven

hundred sixty seven it will be (sta sau saasaha).

Another point to be noted in Hindi in case of cardinal numbers is that Hindi (and all other Indic languages) often us

quantities like lakh and crore which are less common in English speaking countries. The opposite is true for

quantities like million, billion (We are talking about the US billion which is 1 followed by 9 zeros, not the UK billio

which is 1 followed by 12 zeros!), zillion etc. Let's roll on to bigger quantities now!


One thousand (1000) ka hazraFive thousand (5000) pca hazra

Ten thousand (10,000) dasa hazra

Hundred thousand/One lakh (100,000) ka lkha

One million/Ten lakh (1,000,000) dasa lkha

Ten million/One crore (10,000,000) ka karoa

Hundred million/Ten crore (100,000,000) dasa karoa

One billion (1,000,000,000)

Hundred billion (100,000,000,000) ka kharaba

Ordinals

Hindi ordinals are a piece of cake once you are thorough with the cardinals. Only the first six ordinals are unique


First (1st) /(/) pahal/prathama


5/5



Second (2nd) /(/) dusar/dvitya

Third (3rd) /(/) tisar/trtya

Fourth (4th) /(/) cauth/caturtha

Fifth (5th) /(/) pcav/pacama

Sixth (6th) /(/) chah/aha

Seventh (7th) /(/) stav/saptamaEighth (8th) /(/) hav/aama

Ninth (9th) /(/) nauv/navama

Tenth (10th) /(/) dasav/daama

Fourteenth (14th) () caudahav

Seventy eighth (78th) () ahahattarav

Hundredth (100th) () sauv

shuny ek do teen char panch chhah saat aath nao 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9

As you would have noticed by now that in Hindi '' acts just like 'th' in English which you can add to the end ofcardinal numbers to form the corresponding ordinal numbers. If you're wondering about the irregularities of the

second options, then let us just tell you that they are the Sanskrit ordinal numbers that are used often in Hindi. You

ust have to remember ten of them (for they sometimes appear in texts/speeches). After ten, any ordinal numbers

ou would encounter would be most likely in the general form of ordinal number+v

Note :- As we mentioned before that the Hindi cardinal numbers are not standardized and several variants exist fo

the same number. For example and are both correct for representing sixty seven. All of these variaforms could be considered correct, however for maintaining uniformity throughout this wikibook we'd be using theforms that are mentioned in this text which is also advocated by the Central Hindi Directorate, Government of Indi

Ministry of Education and Social Welfare (BGMH, pp. 64-5)
