When learning a new language, the next thing you should do after learning the alphabet is probably to know **how to count**. Whether you wish to tell people about time, age, or ask for prices when shopping, **remembering numbers will make things much easier**. Learning numbers is also a quite independent process as all you need to do is to learning the vocabulary. So now let’s get started to learn Russian numbers!

Fortunately, **Russian numbers are counted very logically**. Unlike French which expresses “ninety-nine” as “four times twenty plus nineteen”, the Russian way of counting is much more predictable. Now you have another reason to nail down these words today!

Let’s dive in!

## Russian Numbers 0 to 10

![Russian numbers 0 to 10](https://storage.ghost.io/c/1a/04/1a0403d3-6352-4489-b286-d9de13f43972/content/images/2026/07/russian-numbers-0-to-10.png)

Note that the form of один (“one”) and два (“two”) may change according to the gender of the corresponding noun.

**masculine: один; два**

один мальчик, два мальчика

**feminine: одна; две**

одна девочка, две девочки

**neuter: одно; два**

одно окно, два окна

**Numbers + Genitive nouns**

Note that numbers **ending in 2, 3, and 4** are followed by the **genitive singular**. For example:

- четыре собаки - four dogs
- три книги- three books
- Её 33 года. - She's 33 years old.

Numbers ending in **other numbers and teens** are followed by the **genitive plural**. For example:

- 12 долларов - 12 dollars
- 100 рублей - 100 roubles
- Мне 25 лет. - I'm 25 years old.

## Russian Numbers 11 to 19

Numbers 11 to 19 are also really easy. Simply add **“надцать”** behind the numbers 1 to 9\. Note that some numbers may change a little (colored in red). The simple rule is that If a number end with “ь”, then “ь” should be omitted before adding “надцать”. For example, fifteen in Russian is “пятнадцать” instead of “пятьнадцать”

- 11 - один**надцать**
- 12 - две**н** **а** **дцать**
- 13 - три**н** **а** **дцать**
- 14 - четыр**надцать**
- 15 - пят**н** **а** **дцать**
- 16 - шест**н** **а** **дцать**
- 17 - сем**н** **а** **дцать**
- 18 - восем**н** **а** **дцать**
- 19 - девят**н** **а** **дцать**

From this part, we don't provide romanized pronunciation anymore, as you should have already covered this part in the alphabet part. If not, it's strongly suggested to learn the [Russian Cyrillic Alphabet](https://blog.lingodeer.com/russian-alphabet/) and master its pronunciation before you learn anything deeper. If you wish to learn Russian systematically, [LingoDeer](https://c85vz.app.goo.gl/8h91?ref=blog.lingodeer.com) is a great place to start learning the fundamentals of the Russian language.

## Russian Numbers 20 to 90

Once over 20, the Russian numbers are compounded very much like English ones. Simply add the number 1 to 9 after the tens.

- 20 - два**дцать**
- 21 - двадцать один
- 22 - двадцать два
- 23 - двадцать три

…

- 30 - три**дцать**
- 40 - сорок
- 50 - пять**дес** **я** **т**
- 60 - шесть**дес** **я** **т**
- 70 - семь**десят**
- 80 - восемь**десят**
- 90 - девяносто

You must have noticed the tens in Russian are also very easy to remember. 20 and 30 are pretty like number 11 to 19 (adding **дцать**), while 50 to 80 can be easily formed by adding **десят.** Only 40 and 90 are irregular.

## Russian Numbers 100 and above

100 in Russian is “сто”. And the hundreds also follow a pattern of ending with “сти”, “ста” or “сот”.

- 100 - сто
- 200 - две**сти**
- 300 - три**ста**
- 400 - четыре**ста**
- 500 - пять**с** **о** **т**
- 600 - шесть**с** **о** **т**
- 700 - семь**с** **о** **т**
- 800 - восемь**с** **о** **т**
- 900 - девять**с** **о** **т**

Larger numbers from 1000 up in Russian are counted exactly the same way as English.

- 1,000 - тысяча
- 10,000 - десять тысяч
- 100,000 - сто тысяч
- 1,000,000 - миллион
- 1,000,000,000 - миллиард

Now try to read 1348 (т

ы 

сяча тр

и 

ста с

о 

рок в

о 

семь). Did you get it?

Here is a Summary of Russian Cardinal Numbers. Let's review what we've learned!

## Russian Ordinal Numbers

Now you’ve learned how to count in Russian. Let’s take a quick look at some ordinal numbers.

- the first – первый
- the second – второй
- the third – третий
- the fourth – четвёртый
- the fifth – пятый
- the sixth – шестой
- the seventh – седьмой
- the eighth – восьмой
- the ninth – девятый
- the tenth – десятый

You may have noticed that **ordinal number endings seem very similar to masculine endings of adjectives**. That’s because they are! As such, the endings will change depending on the corresponding noun. For example, we use **neuter endings with dates**. To express dates in Russian, we use ordinal numbers.

For example, 4 марта (March 4) is pronounced as четвёрт

ое 

марта.

With years, it’s a different matter. You need to use **the genetive case.**

For example, 4 марта 2022 г. (March 4, 2022) is pronounced as четвёрт

ое 

 марта две тысячи двадцать втор

ого 

года.
