For 16 to 19, there's a trick.
How do you say this in Spanish: "10", "and", "six"?
and squish it all together. Now, change the "z" to "c" and the "y" to "i" and squish it all together. 29

There's a similar trick for the 20's.
How do you say this in Spanish: "20", "and", "one"? 36
veinte y uno Take off. veintiuno 37
Now, drop the last "e" in "veinte". Change the "y" to "i", and squish it all together. 38

El FIN
First, say the number in the "tens" place (30, 40, 50, etc.). 51
Then say "and" followed by the number in the ones place. 52
treinta y uno 53
Then, just continue the same pattern. 54
"Cien" is ONLY used for the number 1 - 0 - 0. 55
After that, we use the word "ciento" followed by the rest of the number. THERE IS NO "AND". "And" occurs only between the "tens" and "ones" place. 56
ciento uno 101 57
ciento quince 115 58
ciento ochenta y siete 187 59
After 199, we use the "hundreds" number plus the word "cientos". 60
doscientos 200
trescientos 300
cuatrocientos 400
quinientos 500
seiscientos 600
setecientos 700
ochocientos 800
novecientos 900
The word for 1000 is a false cognate! 69
mil 1000
Now, you just say "1000", then rest of the number (just like before). 71
mil doscientos treinta y cinco 1235 72
Look what happens to numbers above 1999. 73
dos mil 2000
tres mil 3000 75
cuatro mil 4000 76
millón / millónes 1,000,000
Using Numbers 20 + “20” + “y” + “ones” but drop “e”, change “y” to “i”, and squish. 30 + “Tens” + “y” + “ones” 101 + “Ciento” + “the rest” 200 + “Number” “cientos” + “rest”. 1000 + “Mil” + “rest” 2000 + “Number” + “mil” + “rest” 78
Use “tens” + “y” + “ones” Using Numbers 30 + Use “tens” + “y” + “ones” 32 64 78 treinta y dos sesenta y cuatro setenta y ocho ochenta y uno 81 95 noventa y cinco
Use CIENTO, then the “rest”. Using Numbers 100 + Use CIENTO, then the “rest”. 100 101 110 cien ciento uno ciento diez ciento treinta y siete 137 191 ciento noventa y uno
Use # CIENTOS, then the “rest”. Using Numbers 200 + Use # CIENTOS, then the “rest”. 200 300 400 doscientos trescientos cuatrocientos 202 287 doscientos dos dos cientos ochenta y siete
Use # MIL, then the “rest”. Using Numbers 1000 + Use MIL, then the “rest”. 1085 1236 mil ochenta y cinco mil doscientos treinta y seis 2000 + Use # MIL, then the “rest”. 2011 5962 dos mil once cinco mil novecientos sesenta y dos 82
