定義
英語中用來表示事物的數量或順序的詞叫做數詞。
分類
1.根據數詞的特徵，可將英語中的數詞分為兩大類，分別為基數詞和序數詞。表示數目多少的數詞叫基數詞;表示順序先後的數詞叫序數詞。
2.根據數字是否為整數，又可將它分為整數、分數和小數;
3.根據數字所表示的數是否確定，還可以分為定數和概數。
基數詞
1.基數詞從1到12是獨立的單詞，要分別記憶。
如2-two，12-twelve
2. 13到19均是在個位數後加-teen構成。
如：13-thirteen，15-fifteen
3. 20到90表示整十的基數詞均是在個位數後加-ty構成。
如：40-forty，90-ninety
4.表示“幾十幾”要在個位數與十位數之間加連字符“-”。
如：59 fifty-five
5.表示“幾百幾十幾”要在百位數與十位數之間加and。
如：262-two hundred and sixty-two
6.英語中沒有“萬”和“億” 這兩個數量單位，要按十進位法來推算。
如ten thousand-10000
ten million-10000000
一億-onethousandmillion
巧記基數詞口訣
1至12分別記，13至19都帶-teen，
整十後面要用-ty，
連字符用於幾十幾，
百位以上and連
略數表達
1.當hundred，thousand，million，billion，dozen等前面有具體的數詞(one, two, three…)時，後面既不能加s，也不能加介詞of。如：
There aretwothousand students in our school.
2. hundred，thousand，million，billion，dozen等前面沒有具體的數詞，則在其後加s和介詞of，表不確定的數量或形容數量之多。如：
hundreds of成百的，好幾百
hundreds and hundreds of成百上千的
thousands of 數以千計的
tens of thousands of千千萬萬的
millions of數百萬的
dozens of 許多
長城是由數百萬石頭砌成的。
The Great Wall is made ofmillionsof stones.
3.若表示特定的數目，可在hundred、thousand後加of。如：
There are seven hundred students in this school.Three hundred of them / the students are girls.
該校有700名學生，其中女生有300名。
4.“another+ 基數詞 + 名詞”或“基數詞 + more + 名詞”表示在已有基礎上再增加一定的數量。
In another two weeks, it will be finished.
再過兩個星期，這活就完成了。
基數詞變序數詞
序數詞是數詞的一種，在漢語中表示為“第幾”。此外，在描述日期時，也會用到序數詞。
1.一、二、三的序數詞需要特殊記憶：
one-first
two-second
three-third
2.八隻加h，九去掉e後再加th：
eighth, ninth
3.五和十二先將ve變成f，再加th：
five-fifth, twelve-twelfth
4.整十的基數詞(10除外)，均將y變成ie，再加th：
twentieth, fiftieth
5.表示二十以上的基數詞只變個位數(整十除外)：
thirty-first
6.其他情況一般都是在基數詞詞尾加th：
fourh
hundredth
基數詞變序數詞口訣
基變序，有規律，詞尾多加th。
一、二、三，特殊記，
詞尾字母t、d、d。
八減t，九去e，f來把ve替。
逢十改y為ie，後跟th莫忘記。
若想表示幾十幾，只變個位就可以。
分數
分數是由基數詞和序數詞組合而成的：分子用基數詞，分母用序數詞;如果分子大於1，分母則用複數形式。如：
1/2 a / one half(一般不讀作a second，因為容易誤以為“一秒鐘”)
1/3 one third
3/5 three fifths
1/ 4 a quarter / one fourth
分數記憶口訣
英語分數不費事，
“母序分基”四個字;
分子若是大於一，
分母還須加s。
【注】分數作主語時，謂語動詞的單複數與後面的名詞一致：當名詞是可數名詞複數時，謂語動詞用複數;當名詞是不可數名詞或可數名詞單數時，謂語動詞用單數。如：
In our class, two fifths of the students are boys.
Three fourths / quarters of the meat has gone bad.
時間表達
時間表達法，英漢有異同;
順讀時一樣，逆讀有不同;
先分鐘後點鐘，half、quarter記心中;
三十分鐘內，past來使用;
超過三十分，to來先前沖。
2:00 two / two o’clock
2:15 two fifteen / a quarter past two
2:30twothirty/halfpasttwo
2:40twoforty/twentytothree
年代表達
年代以十記，s加上去;
前加介詞in，定冠莫忘記。
在20世紀90年代(1990-1999)
in the 1990s或in the 1990’s
在19世紀80年代(1880-1889)

1900年讀作nineteen hundred
1901年讀作nineteen o one
2000年讀作two thousand
2012年讀作two thousand and twelve / twenty twelve
2.可以先月後日，日要用序數詞。
如：
5月1日讀作May(the)first，寫作May 1st
3月8日讀作March(the)eighth，寫作March 8th
3.也可以先日後月，日也要用序數詞。
如：
5月2日讀作the second of May，寫作2nd May
3月3日讀作the third of March，寫作3rd March
4.年份前要用逗號隔開。
如：
1949年10月1日，可寫作 October 1st, 1949或1st October, 1949
年齡段表達
年齡段用“in + 形容詞性物主代詞 + 數詞的複數形式”來表示。如：
in my twenties 在我二十幾歲時(20-29)
in her sixties在她六十幾歲時(60-69)
Marx began to learn foreign languages in his fifties。.
【注】“十幾歲”要用in one’s teens而不是in one’s tens。
算式表達
1.加法：
基數詞+ and / plus +基數詞+ is +總數
Seven and / plus eight is fifteen.
(7+8=15)
2.減法：
基數詞+ minus +基數詞+ is +總數
Ten minus two is eight.
3.乘法：
基數詞+ times +基數詞+ is +總數
Nine times three is twenty-seven.
4.除法：
基數詞+ divided by + 基數詞+ is +總數
Thirty-two divided by four is eight.
What / How much is one plus three？
