RUSSIAN PHRASEBOOK (with audio and video)


NUMBERS

We're going to learn how to count in Russian. If we know the numbers, we'll be able to count, tell prices, the time, dates,... Here you have the chance not only to read them, but also to watch them on video or listen to them as much as you want. Repeat each number out loud and learn to count at least up to 10. Little by little you'll be remembering the numbers and in no time you'll reach 100 (and more).

From 0 to 10

Here you have the numbers in Russian from zero to ten. Like in English, with these numbers you'll build the rest. Listen carefully to the recordings and repeat out loud each number to help you memorize them:

From 11 to 19

The numbers in Russian from 11 to 19 are very easy to remember. Basically, you'll have to say: number + надцать. It's like in English: number + teen. So, if you know how to count up to ten, you can build the rest up to 19 very easily:



NUMBER PRONUNCIATION

11 оди́ннадцать

a-dí-na-tset

From 10 to 100

Now we're going to learn the tens (10, 20, 30,...). As we'll see below, once you know the tens and the units (1, 2, 3,...) you won't have any problem to say in Russian any number from zero to one hundred:

From 100 to 1000

Now it's the turn of the hundreds (100, 200, 200,...). Pay attention to the audio and you'll see that the word "hundred" has three different forms: one for 100, another one from 200 to 400 and, finally, a form for the rest of hundreds:

How to count up to 1000

As you can see below, counting up to one thousand in Russian is very easy. You only have to put one number after the other. For example, in order to read 765 you only have to say the words for 700, 60 and 5 without adding anything else:



NUMBER PRONUNCIATION
 
34 три́дцать четы́ре
thirsty-four
trí-tset chye-tý-rye

 
106 сто́ шесть
A hundred and six
sto shést

 
219 две́сти девятна́дцать
two hundred and nineteen
dvyé-sti dye-vyet-ná-tset

 
765 семьсо́т ше́стьдесят пять
seven hundred and sixty-five
syem-sót shes-dye-syát pyat

 
880 восемьсо́т восемьдесят
eight hundred and eighty
