Thurs April 24th & Fri April 25th - Los Numeros Ordinales y SER v. ESTAR y Comprehension

Today we learned ordinal numbers (numbers that describe what order a noun is in).

Things to remember

• Ordinal numbers in both English and Spanish indicate position in a series or the order of items. (first, second, third, fourth, etc.)
• Ordinal numbers MUST agree with number AND gender with the noun.
• Ordinal numbers are placed BEFORE the noun.
• Primero (first) and tercero (third) drop the 'o' before a masculine singular noun.

       'El piso' is singular & masculine:  El primer piso  El Segundo piso  El tercer piso

                                                              The first floor   The second floor The third floor

             ** remember the rule for dropping the 'o' at the end only applies to primero (first) y tercero (third), all other orndinal numbers that come before masculine singlur nouns keep the 'o' on the end.  

e.g. el segundo piso  (the second floor),  el quarto piso (the forth floor), el quinto piso(the fifth floor)

                    

When describing a plural masculine noun their proper form is 'primeros'  or  'terceros'.

When ordinal numbers come before a feminine noun the o/os is replaced by an a/as.

The following examples show ordinal numbers before a singular and plural feminine nouns. 

la tarta-the cake

las letras- the letters

Let's say I'm choosing a birthday cake for my sister. 

Which one do I want?

la segunda tarta ('the second cake')
